During the presentation by trainer Giovanni van Bronckhorst, Rigaux discussed the qualities of his compatriot and emphasized that Vanhoutte was high on the scouting wish list. The Belgian is considered a controlling link in midfield, exactly the profile Feyenoord is looking for heading into the new season.

With the intended arrival of Vanhoutte, Feyenoord is focusing on extra balance and dueling power in the axis. Further details about the completion of the transfer were not shared by Rigaux during the press moment.
