Tuchel stays after England exit as Fortuna signs Feyenoord loanee

Thomas Tuchel will continue as England manager even after the national team’s 1‑2 semi‑final defeat to Argentina at the World Cup, and Fortuna Sittard have completed the loan signing of 22‑year‑old midfielder Shiloh ’t Zandt from Feyenoord, where he will wear the number 22 shirt. The dual news comes as the World Cup draws to a close and the Dutch transfer market heats up. The English Football Association confirmed that Tuchel’s contract, extended earlier this year to cover Euro 2028, remains in place despite the disappointment. Leading British outlets such as the BBC and The Times reported that the 52‑year‑old German still enjoys the trust of the FA. Critics have highlighted his defensive substitutions in the match, which allowed Argentina to come back from 1‑0 to win twice in the closing stages. "We will continue with the contract up to the Euros on home soil," Tuchel said after the loss. "I am looking forward to it, even though it is difficult to look so far ahead right now." Shiloh ’t Zandt, a product of Feyenoord’s youth academy, joins Fortuna Sittard on a season‑long loan after previous short spells at FC Dordrecht and Heracles. The midfielder will take the number 22 shirt and is expected to add depth to Fortuna’s central midfield. Fortuna also secured left‑back Nick de Groot from FC Den Bosch on a multi‑year deal. Technical director Joris Mathijsen praised the defender, saying, "Nick fits well into our playing style and has the right mentality to develop further."

Ramiz Zerrouki has signed a four‑year contract to stay at FC Twente, with the club reportedly paying just over €2 million to Feyenoord for the midfielder, a drop from the €7 million fee paid three years earlier. Belgian international Thomas Meunier moved to Sunderland on a two‑year free‑transfer deal after leaving Lille. He said, "The Premier League is one of the most competitive and exciting leagues in the world and I wanted the challenge." French forward Kadidiatou Diani transferred to the London City Lionesses on a three‑year contract, joining a squad that already features Alèxia Putellas, Kosovare Asllani and Nicole Anyomi in the Women’s Super League.
