Feyenoord's fitness levels have improved significantly this season, with Gijs Smal, Reiss Nelson, and Shaqueel van Persie expected to return to the match selection soon. However, the situation surrounding Bart Nieuwkoop remains unclear, with Van Bronckhorst providing little information on the 30-year-old's injury. Voetbalzone reports that Van Bronckhorst gave a medical update on Nieuwkoop, but the details of the injury are still unknown.
The uncertainty surrounding Nieuwkoop's injury is in contrast to the more positive news on the fitness of other Feyenoord players. Thomas Beelen is out with a broken leg, while Jordan Bos is recovering from a severe knee injury. Meanwhile, the return of Smal, Nelson, and Van Persie to the match selection is expected to boost Feyenoord's fitness levels further.
Feyenoord will be looking to build on their improved fitness levels as they prepare for their next match.
