Gjivai Zechiël, born on 1 June 2004 (age 22), is a Dutch centre midfielder with Feyenoord. Compact at 5ft 7in (1.71m), he has a current market value of around £6m, according to Transfermarkt.
His most productive league spell came with FC Utrecht in 2025-26, when he scored eight goals in 34 appearances. For a midfielder, that was a useful return and gave his progress a bit more substance than the usual promise-and-potential routine.
Back with Feyenoord in 2026-27, Zechiël has made seven Eredivisie appearances and scored five league goals. He has also played once in the KNVB Beker and once in the Champions League, taking him to nine appearances and five goals across all competitions for the club this season.
He has also been involved with the Netherlands, making two Nations League appearances. Zechiël’s career is still taking shape, but it now has a clear line: Dutch development, a productive Utrecht season, and a growing role at Feyenoord.
