The 2019-20 campaign marked FC Twente's crucial return to the Eredivisie after winning the second tier title. Under manager Gonzalo García, The Tukkers secured a 14th-place finish, which safely avoided relegation in their first season back in the elite. Leading the line was the prolific Haris Vučkić, whose 11 league goals proved vital in a turbulent campaign that was ultimately cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was a necessary year of consolidation that cemented the club's hard-fought return to the top flight and remains a defining chapter of their modern history.
