Feyenoord has shown great interest in Stéphyano Carrillo, a young Mexican talent born on March 7, 2006, in Gómez Palacio, Durango. Carrillo was trained in the Santos Laguna academy and has stood out for his scoring ability, representing the Mexican national team in lower categories and registering 26 goals in 33 matches with the U-17, including three goals in the World Cup of that category.
Although Santos is going through a difficult time in Mexican football, they have several promising players like Jordan Carrillo, Santiago Muñoz, and Stéphyano Carrillo himself. The departure of Santiago Giménez to Milan left a significant void in Feyenoord, as he became the team's top scorer since arriving in the old continent in the summer of 2022.
In light of this situation, the Dutch club is looking to replace Giménez with Stéphyano Carrillo, an 18-year-old young prospect from Santos Laguna. Carrillo, a forward for the Torreón team, stands out for his physical strength and his abilities both inside and outside the box, becoming a real option to replace Chaquito in Feyenoord.
At the start of the Clausura 2025, Stéphyano Carrillo has played four out of five matches, accumulating 225 minutes of play and scoring one goal in the 18 matches he has participated in the Primera División. Journalist César Luis Merlo has revealed that negotiations are already underway between Feyenoord and Santos Laguna, so the transfer of the player could finalize in this winter market.
