It is understood that Brighton & Hove Albion are one of several Premier League clubs interested in Feyenoord's Netherlands midfielder Gjivai Zechiël. The 22-year-old has attracted attention after scoring five goals and providing four assists in seven league matches at the start of the season. His form follows a successful loan spell at Utrecht last season. It is also believed that Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, and Nottingham Forest are interested. Chelsea are tracking the player, and Liverpool scouts have reportedly checked on him. Zechiël joined Feyenoord in September 2023, has not yet been capped for the Netherlands national team, and his contract is valid until June 2029. His current Transfermarkt market value is €10.00m. In September 2026, reports mentioned a €30 million valuation by Feyenoord. During the summer of 2026, the club reportedly rejected multiple offers from LOSC Lille, including a final bid with a reported worth of €17 million.
