Jordy Clasie is returning to Feyenoord on a season long loan.
The Dutch club have managed to get their way after tough negotiations with Southampton.
For a while it’s felt like Feyenoord have been cocky about getting their former player back, despite Southampton’s initial demands. The Saints were looking for a permanent transfer and asking for most of the money they paid for him in the first place.
In the Netherlands it was repeatedly insisted that Clasie would only accept a return to his former club, and that put the Premier League side in a difficult situation and has ultimately forced them to go along with things.
De Telegraaf reports that as soon as the ‘last letter of paperwork’ is done and a medical passed, the loan will be confirmed by the Eredivisie side.
Feyenoord are loaning the midfielder for ‘an amount which fits the policy of the club’.
