According to Voetbalprimeur.nl, there is growing interest in Mats Rots from top clubs such as Ajax. An option in Mats Rots' contract was exercised on Friday afternoon, tying him to FC Twente until mid-2028. Rots indicates he is happy at FC Twente and said that he has no knowledge of any clauses in his contract.

Mats Rots is being monitored by several clubs, including Ajax. Tubantia writes that by activating an option in his contract, FC Twente is at least assured of a higher transfer fee, if the interest from a club becomes concrete. With a longer contract, the price tag that FC Twente might have in mind could be even higher.

That there is real interest from big clubs was acknowledged by Mats Rots.

According to ESPN, Ajax is following the development of Mats Rots, a 20-year-old Dutch left-back from FC Twente, with above-average interest and has been monitoring him for over two years. PSV is also reported to have a serious interest in the player, and Como has also shown interest. Last summer, Rots was linked with a move to the Amsterdam club as a potential successor to Jorrel Hato, but a transfer was not finalized. A move could occur this summer, as Ajax may need a new left-back for the upcoming season. Rots is under contract until mid-2027, and his estimated market value is ten million euros, according to Transfermarkt. Rots is a Netherlands U21 international with 4 caps. This season in the Eredivisie, he has made 27 appearances, scored 4 goals, and provided 3 assists.
