Givairo Read has been linked with Manchester City. Feyenoord's director Dennis te Kloese stated that no official bid has been made and there are no ongoing talks with clubs. The director of the Rotterdam club acknowledged that the right-back is being closely monitored. Te Kloese added that big clubs are present in the stands. It is expected that scouts will also be in the stands on Thursday evening for the nineteen-year-old Read when Feyenoord plays their Europa League away match against VfB Stuttgart.

According to De Telegraaf, Manchester City is interested in Givairo Read, and the publication also links Arsenal with the player. Read is a 19-year-old Dutch right-back who is a regular starter for Feyenoord. In separate reporting from Sky, FC Bayern München is looking to strengthen its right-back position in the summer and has the young defender under consideration. Read has commented on the speculation, noting that his teammates joke about the Bayern links, but stated that he is not distracted and is focused solely on his development at Feyenoord, where he feels very comfortable. The Netherlands U21 international joined the club in July 2024 and is under contract until 2029. He has provided 3 assists in 10 league appearances this season. According to Transfermarkt, he has a market value of €20.00m.
