Slovakian David Hantzko (28), Feyenoord's key center back, confirmed his move to Spain's prestigious Atletico Madrid on the 24th. Even at the age of 30, he was in the arms of Atletico coach Diego Simeone for a transfer fee of 30 million euros (about 48 billion won) due to his consistent skills displayed at Feyenoord and differentiation as a left-footed centerback.
Hantzko is the second star Feyenoord has made it to the big leagues this summer. Dutch attacking midfielder Antony Milambo (20), who was previously working with Hwang In-beom (29) in the midfield, signed a five-year long-term contract with Brentford of the English Premier League earlier this month. Milambo played in 43 games, including the 2024-2025 Cup, scoring seven goals and nine assists.
If Milambo's transfer fee of 20 million euros (about 32 billion won) and Hantzko's transfer fee are added, the transfer fee of 50 million euros (about 81 billion won) was earned only by selling the two players. This is the amount that can recruit about seven people, Hwang In-beom (7 million euros in transfer fee), who entered Feyenoord as a club record from Tsurvenazvezda in September last year.
Feyenoord has already earned 67.63 million euros (about 110 billion won) this summer alone, including a minor transfer.

In the same year, defensive midfielder Mats Biffar and right-back Rutzharal Hairtraweeda moved to Brighton and Leipzig, respectively. The transfer fee was 32 million euros and 20 million euros, respectively.
In the 2022-2023 season, winger Luis Sinisterra (then Leeds), center back Marcos Sennessey (then Bournemouth) and left back Tyrell Malacia (then Manchester United) advanced to the EPL side by side. There have been times when Feyenoord has not been able to attract the attention of European big clubs for a while, but the number of big leagues has been increasing rapidly over the past two to three years.
It is too early for Hwang In-beom, who is entering his second year of Feyenoord, to give up his dream of entering the big league. Hwang In-beom failed to raise his voice in the second half of last season due to calf problems, but he performed at the best level of Eredivisie in the first half. He played in a total of 30 games and scored three goals and two assists.
Feyenoord finished third in the Eredivisie last season to qualify for the European Champions League. After the pre-season, he will play the first leg of the Champions League's third qualifying round against Feyenoord, led by Jose Mourinho, on the 5th of next month. The match against Fenerbahce is an important two-game series that will determine the fate of the season.
