Shaqueel Van Persie, the 18-year-old son of football legend Robin Van Persie, has taken a major step in his career by signing his first professional contract with Dutch powerhouse Feyenoord.
The contract, which ties him to the club until 2028, marks the beginning of a promising journey for the young talent.
Born to one of football's most iconic strikers, Shaqueel is already making waves in the sport.
Known for his skill, versatility, and keen footballing instincts, the teenager has been a standout in Feyenoord's youth academy.
This long-term deal underscores the club’s faith in his potential to contribute at the professional level.
Notably, Shaqueel is also on the radar of the Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF).
With Moroccan heritage, he is eligible to represent the North African nation on the international stage.
The FRMF's interest in the young star could spark a tug-of-war over his national allegiance, with the Dutch national team also keeping a close eye on his development.
Fans of Feyenoord and football enthusiasts worldwide are eager to see how Shaqueel’s career unfolds, as he steps out of his father's shadow to carve his own legacy in the beautiful game.
