Starring in Sittard
Flemming emerged as a key player for Sjors Ultee’s side last season, thoroughly impressing in attacking midfield.
Across all competitions, the former Ajax youngster netted 15 goals and provided seven assists in 35 outings for the club.
Attacking versatility
Despite attacking midfield being his main role, Flemming has shown he can play in a number of positions.
He was deployed as a right-winger and centre-forward on occasion during the 2020/21 campaign, also appearing deeper as a central midfielder on occasion.
