Bart Nieuwkoop

Bart Nieuwkoop of Feyenoord was born on 7 March 1996 (age 29).

Bart Nieuwkoop, born on 7 March 1996 in the Netherlands, is a seasoned defender who primarily mans the right back position for Feyenoord. Standing at 5ft 10in (1.8m) and weighing around 11st 9lb (74kg), he can be recognised on the field by his number 2 jersey. The market currently values Nieuwkoop around £1.7m (€2.00m), according to Transfermarkt.

Nieuwkoop's career at Feyenoord started when he joined the club in July 2014. He has consistently put in appearances for the team during his time at Feyenoord, playing in each season from his debut in 2015 - 2016 through to the current one in 2025 - 2026. His contributions have seen him make between five and 21 first team appearances each season, with a few goals scored along the way.

A brief departure saw Nieuwkoop transferred on loan from Feyenoord to Willem II in August 2019. During his time with Willem II for the 2019 - 2020 season, he made 17 first team appearances. By June 2020, he returned to Feyenoord on completion of his loan.

In July 2021, he was once again transferred, this time moving from Feyenoord to Union Saint-Gilloise in Belgium's Pro League. Over the next three seasons, he continued to maintain a steady presence, making between two and 33 first team appearances per season, and even scoring a few goals.

Despite his time abroad, Nieuwkoop was once again brought back to Feyenoord in August 2023, this time for a fee of around £1.8m. Since his return, he has kept his spot on the team, making appearances each season from 2023 - 2024 through to the current one in 2025 - 2026. Additionally, he has also represented Feyenoord in Champions League and Europa League matches.

In conclusion, Nieuwkoop's career thus far has been marked by consistent performances for both Feyenoord and Union Saint-Gilloise. His market value indicates the high regard held for him in the football community, and his numerous appearances for Feyenoord affirm his important role within the team.
