Feyenoord technical director Martin van Geel admits the club is keen on Colin Kazim-Richards.
The English-born Turkish forward is currently on loan with the Dutch club from Turkish side Bursaspor but could join the Rotterdam outfit permanently on a free transfer in the summer.
"Will he leave? That's not what we've told Kazim," van Geel told Fox Sports.
"We can get him for free - we'll try to keep the best players."
Former Brighton and Sheffield United forward Kazim-Richards, who spent time with Arsenal's youth academy more than 15 years ago, has scored 10 goals in 20 Eredivisie outings for Feyenoord this term.
