Ex-Real Madrid player mocks Casper Tengstedt: “No idea who signed him” | OneFootball

The former Real Madrid player, Rafael Van der Vaart, made some unsympathetic remarks directed at Casper Tengstedt. In a program broadcast in the Netherlands, the ex-footballer openly questioned the quality of the former Benfica forward, even stating that he does not have the level to represent a club of Feyenoord's stature.

“I don't know who signed him, but they should be fired immediately. I saw that he played for Benfica, incredible. Whoever signed him must have watched his games backwards,” said Rafael Van der Vaart, harshly criticizing Casper Tengstedt, the former Benfica player who now represents Feyenoord.

So far, Casper Tengstedt - who revealed details about his departure from the Eagles - has only played five matches for the Dutch club, totaling 101 minutes, in which he has yet to score. The former Benfica player was a starter in the 1-0 loss against Braga in the first round of the Europa League.

It should be noted that Casper Tengstedt left Benfica in the last transfer window. After a loan period at Hellas Verona, in Serie A, the 25-year-old Dane moved to the Dutch club, bringing in around 6 million euros for the Club of Light, with the amount potentially increasing based on the achievement of objectives.

The forward joined Benfica in January 2023, coming from Rosenborg, for 7 million euros. In total, with the Sacred Mantle, Casper Tengstedt played 35 matches, in which he scored four goals and made six assists. The striker's best moment with the Reds was likely the goal against Sporting in the 2023/24 season.
