Feyenoord are aware of interest from other clubs in one of Europe's top emerging talents - but the Dutch club want to keep him and are in discussions about improving his contract.
Kokcu, who has scored twice in 21 Eredivisie appearances this season, sees his current deal expires in 2023.
He has impressed as Feyenoord have kept pace with league leaders Ajax and second-placed AZ Alkmaar this season, but they are still six points off the top.
