Daan Rots

Daan Rots is a product of FC Twente's own academy, having joined the club's youth system in 2012 from local side SV Grol. He worked his way through the ranks at Twente and signed his first professional contract on 17 February 2021, initially running until July 2023.

That deal has since been extended twice. Rots put pen to paper on a new contract on 12 October 2022, taking his stay through to July 2025, before signing again on 6 February 2025 until July 2027, with an option for a further year. The most recent extension followed a run of strong performances.

Rots is left-footed. He has stayed with FC Twente throughout his career and has not moved to another senior club. His form in the early part of 2025 was recognised when he was named in the Eredivisie Team of the Month for January.
