Dutch Winger, Julian Kwaaitaal, returns from loan following season with FC Eindhoven

Adelaide United can confirm that Julian Kwaaitaal has returned to the Club for the 2025/26 Isuzu UTE A-League Men’s season following the completion of his loan spell with FC Eindhoven.

Kwaaitaal was initially signed by the Reds at age 19 in August 2024 on a three-year deal with an option of a fourth and was immediately loaned to the Dutch second division side. The attacking right winger made 22 appearances for the Blauw-Witten across their 2024/25 League and Cup campaigns.

Having returned from loan with vital exposure to regular first-team competitive football, Kwaatiaal is expected to seamlessly integrate into the Reds set-up, bringing a keen sense of the game and dynamic technical skills.

Kwaaitaal has already arrived in Adelaide and has joined the squad for their first week of pre-season testing ahead of the Round of 32 Australia Cup clash against Newcastle Jets.
