Jasper Schendelaar of PEC Zwolle is the main candidate for Sparta's new goalkeeper. According to Nijkamp, Sparta and PEC are not yet in agreement on a possible transfer. Nijkamp said that they know who they want and are still somewhat apart, which he described as the short summary.

Sparta Rotterdam are interested in goalkeeper Jasper Schendelaar. According to Voetbal International, the 25-year-old is the highest priority for the club. PEC Zwolle would be willing to cooperate with the goalkeeper’s departure. According to Voetbal International, Sparta have already spoken with Schendelaar, but the club have not yet made a bid. The outlet writes that the deal will accelerate as soon as Sparta has made room to submit a bid, because all parties are aware of each other’s wishes. According to Transfermarkt, Schendelaar has a market value of 1.5 million euros.

Sparta Rotterdam has shown interest in Jasper Schendelaar as they consider him a potential replacement for Joël Drommel. The club has already initiated contact with Schendelaar, who made a significant impression at PEC Zwolle in the previous season. With Schendelaar's contract extending until mid-2026, PEC Zwolle is in a position to demand a transfer fee, which is reportedly around 1 million euros. This interest from Sparta follows Nick Olij's move to PSV for an estimated 3 million euros, and as Joël Drommel is uncertain about relocating to Het Kasteel. Sparta, having gained financial strength from recent transfers, including the sale of Mike Eerdhuijzen to FC Utrecht for 1.3 million euros, is now in a position to pursue Schendelaar.
