Club Brugge will be looking for a crucial victory against Celtic in the Champions League this Wednesday. Dedryck Boyata, who obviously won’t be in the game against his former club, was completely sidelined at Jan Breydel. The club would like to get rid of this big employee who no longer has any reason to exist as soon as possible. But that turns out to be easier said than done.
Het Nieuwsblad reports, for example, that the Blauw and Zwart tried to find a solution for Boyata last summer, who was ready to cooperate. Unfortunately, interest in the 33-year-old defender and his generous salary has been almost non-existent.
Boyata unaffordable
The champions then tried to convince Boyata to terminate his contract by mutual agreement, but according to the newspaper, he did not agree. There was also no question of giving up his annual salary, which would amount to three million, which may partly explain the lack of interest.
Indeed, this makes it unaffordable for possible Jupiler Pro League candidates. Abroad, despite his past at Manchester City, Hertha Berlin and Celtic, Boyata, who has hardly played in recent years, is not really in demand.
The Club is looking for a solution
So far, he has made 26 appearances for the Club and unless an exotic destination offers him an exit again, it does not appear that a solution will be found for Boyata during the winter break. .
Although it will be allowed to negotiate with possible new employers in January, the Club risks having to endure until then the onerous casting error, which has since been excluded from the A team but continues to behave in a professional manner. Even if he regrets today not having been able to stay in Glasgow.
