Last season, the RWDM failed to save its place in the elite of Belgian football. Relegated to the Challenger Pro League, the Molenbeekois wish to return to the Jupiler Pro League as quickly as possible.
For the moment, they occupy third place in the standings, eight points behind La Louvière but with one game less. Good results with players who stand out, to the point of arousing desire elsewhere.
Arrived a year ago
There is one player in particular who caught the eye and who will leave just one year after his arrival. Having been recruited from Sochaux for 200,000 euros, Congolese international defender Christ Makosso is reportedly preparing to join Luton Town, who play in the Championship.
Footmercato exclusively reveals that the 20-year-old player will move to England for the sum of 2.4 million euros with bonus as well as a percentage on resale. A very good financial opportunity for the RWDM, which will however lose an important player, who played thirteen games and scored a goal this season in the championship.
A new stage
After the French Ligue 2 and a few months in the elite of Belgian football, Makosso will therefore have a new experience with a club which occupies sixteenth place out of twenty-four and which needs stability and continuity to progress and mingle with the fight with the clubs that occupy the first half of the ranking.
Having played three international matches with Congo this year, Makosso proves that he is a player who has the ability to play at the highest level. At Luton Town, his objective will be to prove that he can express his potential in England before joining the elite in the more or less near future.
