Gjivai Zechiël, born on 1 June 2004 (age 22), is a Dutch central midfielder with Feyenoord. Compact at 5ft 7in (1.71m), he is still in the developing bracket, though his senior record is now substantial enough to be judged on more than promise.
His most productive league season came at FC Utrecht in 2025-26, when he scored eight goals in 34 appearances. That gave his career a clear lift, and the next step has been a more prominent spell with Feyenoord.
In 2026-27, Zechiël has scored five times in 11 Eredivisie appearances for Feyenoord, and has added one goal in four Champions League matches. Across all competitions for the club, that makes six goals in 15 games. He has also made two Nations League appearances for the Netherlands this season.
His current market value is around £6m, according to Transfermarkt. At this stage, his career reads as that of a young Dutch midfielder turning steady senior minutes into proper output.
