"It is the intention of the club to keep these players for as long as possible at Feyenoord," said a club statement.

Among those seven prospects, 20-year-old Dutch Under-21 international winger Vincken is already a regular in Erwin Koeman's first-team squad while 19-year-old forward Biseswar has also gained Eredivisie experience on loan at Heracles Almelo. Feyenoord are fifth in the Eredivisie.
