BIOGRAPHY
A key member of NEC Nijmegen's squad, B. Linssen has been an important figure in the Eredivisie this season. Hailing from Neeritter, this Netherlands player has climbed the ranks to establish himself in professional football. His 170 cm, 64 kg build makes him a powerful forward capable of holding his own in any physical contest. His combination play with NEC Nijmegen's midfielders creates dangerous patterns that are difficult to contain. Vitesse's decision to sign him in 2017 for € 1M proved to be an investment that paid dividends quickly. His trophy cabinet includes AFC Champions League Elite among his major honours, evidence of a career built on collective success. Throughout the 2025/2026 season, he has continued to affirm himself as a key member of NEC Nijmegen's group. With his technical ability and competitive drive, B. Linssen has many more chapters to write in his professional story.
