Feyenoord chase World Cup hero Orlando Gill as Club Brugge watches

World Cup standout Orlando Gill, the 26‑year‑old San Lorenzo goalkeeper who saved two penalties against Germany, is being linked with Feyenoord while Belgian side Club Brugge also monitors his availability. The Paraguayan international, under contract at San Lorenzo until mid‑2027 and valued at €6 million, has attracted interest from both clubs. Gill has been Paraguay's undisputed number one throughout the World Cup, guiding the South American side to the round of 16. After a penalty shoot‑out loss to Germany, Paraguay finished the group stage in third place behind the United States and Australia, with France awaiting in the next round. To date Gill has earned ten caps for the Paraguay national team. His performances at the tournament have raised his profile on the international stage.

Italian Serie A club Torino has also placed Gill on its radar, while Belgian Pro League side Club Brugge is monitoring the goalkeeper as part of its search for a new first‑choice keeper. Club Brugge is simultaneously considering Yann Sommer as a possible successor to Simon Mignolet. Transfermarkt values Gill at six million euros. His contract with San Lorenzo runs until the middle of 2027, providing the Argentine side with a long‑term option.

Feyenoord’s interest remains unconfirmed, as the Rotterdam club is reportedly negotiating a verbal agreement with young German keeper Tjark Ernst. Manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst has indicated he would like Ernst between the posts for the Champions League campaign. The contrasting pursuits illustrate a split between clubs seeking immediate reinforcement and those weighing longer‑term options. Gill’s next move will likely hinge on whether Feyenoord finalises a deal or he opts for a European transfer.
