The young Mexican forward, 18-year-old Stephano Carrillo, has taken an important step in his career by confirming his signing with Feyenoord of the Netherlands. Carrillo, who has shone in the U-17 team scoring 26 goals in 33 matches, joins the Dutch team to fill the spot left by Santiago Giménez.
Carrillo, hailing from Gómez Palacio, Durango, is seen as a player with great potential and is expected to follow in the footsteps of his compatriot at Feyenoord. Despite this, it is likely that his initial matches will be with the youth team to adapt to European football before making the jump to the first team.
Carrillo's contract with Feyenoord is for four and a half years, until the summer of 2029, after the Dutch club agreed to purchase 85% of his rights for 3.5 million dollars. The young forward, nicknamed "Spider," will thus fulfill his dream of playing in Europe after standing out in the Primera División of Mexico with Santos Laguna.
With his arrival at Feyenoord, Carrillo becomes the new Mexican hope in the Eredivisie, following the departures of Santiago Giménez and Hirving Lozano, and it is expected that he can make his mark on the team and the league with his physical presence and area talent. His signing is great news for Mexican football, which sees one of its young promises making the leap to international football.
Stephano Carrillo has been able to stand out from an early age in the lower categories of the Mexican National Team, demonstrating his quality and goal-scoring ability. Now, with his arrival at Feyenoord, he will have the opportunity to continue growing as a player and to demonstrate all his potential in one of the most competitive leagues in Europe.
