Calvin Stengs, born on 18 December 1998 (age 27), is a Dutch attacking midfielder with AZ, where he wears the number 14 shirt. He is at his most natural centrally, looking to work between midfield and attack rather than simply hug a touchline.
His career has been closely tied to AZ, with his development coming through regular exposure in Dutch football rather than a dramatic series of moves. His most productive league campaign came in 2020-21, when he scored seven goals in 30 appearances for the club.
Stengs was linked with a move to Celtic in August 2025 and again in July 2026. His current market value is around £4m, according to Transfermarkt.
In 2026-27, he has made four Eredivisie appearances for AZ, scoring once, and has also featured once in the Johan Cruijff Schaal. Across all competitions for AZ that season, he has five appearances and one goal.
Stengs’ profile is that of an established Dutch league attacking midfielder: useful, experienced, and still operating at a good level with AZ.
