The 2021-22 campaign delivered a powerful European return for FC Twente as The Tukkers surged to a spectacular 4th-place finish in the Eredivisie. Leading the charge was veteran striker Ricky van Wolfswinkel, whose 16 league goals proved decisive in a campaign built on renewed confidence and a formidable home record under manager Ron Jans. It was a significant year that marked their best league finish in nearly a decade and secured a coveted spot in the Europa Conference League, solidifying their status as a top-four club.
