Head of Academy Zeb Jacobs to remain with Feyenoord

Following Jacobs' lead, Feyenoord has also extended the contracts of Zurab Amirian (34) and Jim Camphens (33). Amirian joined the club in the spring of 2025 and is responsible for the middle teams. Camphens has been active at Varkenoord since 2021 and holds a similar position within the lower teams.

'By securing the long-term commitment of the three technical policy makers at Feyenoord Academy, the club is consciously opting for continuity within the youth academy,' says Jelle Goes, Technical Manager Football Development at Feyenoord. 'As a club, we are very satisfied with the steps taken by the entire technical staff and scouting department in recent years and would like to build on that.'
