Earlier this year, Feyenoord had plans to signing Mohammed Kudus from FC Nordsjaelland, but the COVID-19 threw a spanner in the works.
According to Mikos Gouka of the Algemeen Dagblad reports at Voetbalpraat due to the corona crisis, Feyenoord could not put high amounts on the table, so they ended up with Mark Diemers and Bryan Linssen.
The team from Rotterdam eventually secured the services of Mark Diemers, while Kudus left for rival Ajax.
'It was better than nothing, they thought at Feyenoord. They will also realize in De Kuip that they will not become champions with purchases such as Diemers and Linssen, 'says Gouka.
Kudus eventually left FC Nordsjaelland for a reported nine million euros for Ajax and he has started his debut season very well to date.
