Thomas Beelen

Thomas Beelen of Feyenoord was born in Harderwijk, Netherlands on 11 June 2001 (age 24).

Thomas Beelen, a native of the Netherlands, is a footballer recognised for his defensive skills, primarily in the centre-back position. He was born on the 11th of June, 2001, which places him at the respectable age of 24. Standout qualities include his stature, measuring 6ft 2in (1.9m) in height and a solid build weighing 12st 10lb (81kg). He proudly wears the number 3 on his jersey and currently plays for Feyenoord.

In line with his professional credentials, his current market value is assessed at approximately €8.00m, which is around £7m, a figure according to Transfermarkt.

Beelen's football career began in earnest in July 2018, when he joined PEC Zwolle in the Eredivisie as a trainee. Subsequently, he made his debut in the 2021–2022 season for PEC Zwolle, managing to secure three appearances in the league matches that year. In the following season, his profile quickly rose as he made 30 appearances and scored one remarkable goal.

In a significant career move in July 2023, Beelen transferred from PEC Zwolle to Feyenoord for a reported fee of around £2.3m. During his inaugural season at Feyenoord (2023–2024), he made 20 appearances in league matches, and his exposure grew in the subsequent season with 25 appearances and one goal. Nevertheless, in the ongoing 2025–2026 season, Beelen has not managed to make any first team appearances in league matches.

Significant milestones in Beelen's career include his participation in prestigious tournaments like the Champions League in the 2023–2024 season, where he made a single start for Feyenoord. He also started twice in the Europa League during the same season.
