Bryan Linssen (born 8 October 1990) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays for J1 League club Urawa Red Diamonds.[2]

He formerly played for Fortuna Sittard, MVV, VVV-Venlo, Heracles Almelo, FC Groningen, Vitesse and Feyenoord.

Club career

Linssen made his professional debut in 2008 for Fortuna Sittard, the club where he spent much of his youth.[3] He went on to play for MVV, VVV-Venlo, Heracles Almelo and FC Groningen,[4] before signing for Vitesse in 2017.[3]

Linssen scored 28 goals in 63 appearances in his first two Eredivisie seasons at the Arnhem club, an average of almost a goal every other match.[3] He continued his fine form in front of goal last season, netting 14 times in 26 appearances before coronavirus hit and the Eredivisie was abandoned.[3] That put him just one goal behind Steven Berghuis in the league scoring charts.[3] In total, Linssen scored 47 goals and added a further 20 assists in 113 matches for Vitesse.[4]

On 6 July 2020, Linssen signed a three-year deal with Feyenoord, joining on a free transfer from Vitesse.[3] Linssen was Feyenoord’s third signing of the summer after Mark Diemers and Christian Conteh.[4]

After two seasons on Netherlands, he signed with J1 League club Urawa Red Diamonds in a full transfer. It's his first overseas experience in his footballing career. [2]

Personal life

He is the younger brother of former professional footballer Edwin Linssen.[5]
