Dutch side NEC Nijmegen are watching Robin Roefs’ summer at Sunderland closely as they are set to benefit from a ‘substantial’ sell-on clause.

Voetbal 4 U cover the 23-year-old goalkeeper today and how a €70m move this summer could benefit his old club massively.

NEC sold Roefs to Sunderland last year in a €10.5m deal, a ‘staggering’ fee for them at the time. But he has performed so well for the Black Cats since then, it now looks like a bargain.

Roefs is now valued at €25m but being linked with a potential €70m move to Chelsea this summer. They’re not the only big club who are watching.

Excellent news for NEC Nijmegen

While that would be a major move for Sunderland, it would also be ‘excellent news’ for NEC Nijmegen.

That’s because they negotiated a ‘substantial’ sell-on clause during the transfer talks with Sunderland last summer. This clause, reportedly, entitles them to a full 10% of any profit Sunderland make. /

Based on the figures mentioned, Sunderland would make a €58.2m profit. NEC would then pocket another €5.82m from the deal. But the profit doesn’t stop there.
