Key strength: Pace and recovery
Overlapping full-back
Burnley find themselves in a precarious position, languishing 19th in the table, fighting for survival. Into this battle stepped Quilindschy Hartman on July 1st, 2025—a €14m investment from Feyenoord's esteemed academy, representing hope on the left flank. At just 24, the Dutch international already boasts 3 assists this season despite limited minutes, showcasing the attacking instinct that made Vincent Kompany's side trigger his release clause. With Hannes Delcroix and Jordan Beyer forming the central defensive spine behind him, Hartman's explosive pace and precise crossing become vital weapons in Burnley's survival arsenal. His contract runs until 2029—a statement of long-term faith in a player who combines defensive reliability with genuine attacking thrust. For a club desperate for creativity from deep positions, Hartman's development as an overlapping left-back could prove the difference between Championship football and another Premier League campaign. The pressure is on, but Feyenoord's finest export looks ready for the fight.
