Why is this important for FC Twente?
The transfer of Nijstad can have a major impact on the future of FC Twente. The club is currently in 4th place in the Eredivisie, with 58 points from 34 matches. The recent form is LWDDW.

| Eredivisie | 58 | 34 | 59-40 |
What's next?
FC Barcelona has indicated that the club is still interested in Nijstad, but that the timing is not good. The club wants to negotiate a possible transfer later in the season. FC Twente will have to wait and see if other clubs are interested in the defender.
