Mees Hilgers leaving FC Twente?

Mees Hilgers wanted to leave FC Twente last summer, but a departure did not happen despite a late attempt from Stade Brest. According to De Telegraaf, Hilgers, whose contract runs until the end of this season, has so far refused to extend it.

Technical director Jan Streuer has now made a new offer to the defender's entourage with better conditions, which still includes a fixed buyout clause. FC Twente aims to prevent Hilgers from leaving for free in the summer and hopes to resolve the dispute with this new offer. It is not yet known how Hilgers' entourage feels about the proposal.
