Thijmen Blokzijl stated that at the end of last year he indicated he wanted to make a move this summer, but also said that he would be very selective about it. Blokzijl said he would not leave FC Groningen easily, as the club has meant a lot to him. He also said he did not want to leave FC Groningen on a free transfer and wants the club to benefit from his departure.

Dutch Centre-Back Thijmen Blokzijl, 21, joined FC Groningen in January 2023. It is possible that he has played his last match for the club, and a transfer is possible.
