Telstar defender Danny Bakker has left the club and is set to join a top club in Asia. The 31-year-old defender had interest from top clubs in South Korea and Japan. According to Voetbal International, Bakker had a meeting with his new agency on Wednesday. It emerged that a top club in South Korea has interest in him, and several Japanese clubs have shown light interest in his services. Bakker joined Telstar in the summer of 2023 on a free transfer and played 30 games for the club. He scored four goals and was the key player in the crucial relegation match against FC Volendam. The defender had expressed his desire to stay with Telstar, but the club had other plans. The Domstedelingen wanted to keep Mike Eerdhuijzen, the central defender who joined from Sparta Rotterdam last season, and Bakker was not needed. The defender had still wanted to make a (foreign) step and now it's a fact. Bakker joined Telstar in 2023 on a free transfer and played 30 games for the club.
