Luciano Valente

Luciano Valente of Feyenoord was born in Groningen, Netherlands on 4 October 2003 (age 22).

Luciano Valente, a footballer originating from the Netherlands, was born on the 4th of October, 2003. Holding the position of a midfielder, Valente's expertise lies in executing the role of a central attacking midfielder. He currently showcases his skills for Feyenoord and proudly sports the number 40 jersey. Standing tall at 6ft 2in (1.89m) and carrying a weight of 12st 12lb (82kg), Valente is a robust presence in the field. Not limiting his skills to the club alone, he has also represented the national team of his homeland, the Netherlands.

In the summer of 2014, Valente embarked upon his journey with FC Groningen in the Eredivisie, Netherlands as a trainee. His debut season in 2022 - 2023 was quite eventful with him marking his presence in 20 first team league matches. The subsequent season of 2023 - 2024 saw Valente scoring seven goals in 34 matches, indicating a solid progress in his career. His growth was consistent through the next season of 2024 - 2025 where he showcased his talent in 32 games and netted two goals.

His notable performance attracted the attention of another Eredivisie team, Feyenoord. In July 2025, Valente switched his allegiance from FC Groningen to Feyenoord in a transfer deal worth approximately £5m.

Since the transfer, Valente has appeared in 13 first team league matches for Feyenoord in the 2025 - 2026 season, where he has already scored once.
