NEC is interested in Thomas van den Belt, who is also a target for FC Twente and Spanish clubs from the top two divisions. Van den Belt, an attacking midfielder, was on loan from Feyenoord to CD Castellon last season. FC Twente is facing significant competition for his signature, with NEC being a notable contender alongside clubs from Spain's top leagues. Van den Belt previously played for PEC Zwolle, and his potential move is part of Twente's strategy to bolster their midfield following the departures of Sem Steijn to Feyenoord and Michal Sadílek to Slavia Prague.
