The clean-up operation is almost complete at Club Brugge. While FCB has already parted ways with Philip Zinckernagel and Dedryck Boyata, an important matter must still be dealt with this winter.
As for arrivals, you shouldn’t expect much this winter at Club Brugge. The squad seems quite strong and balanced and, unless a pillar leaves, no major transfer should be made.
In the other direction, on the other hand, the Club has already accomplished remarkable work with the departures of Zinckernagel and Boyata. Both players represented a significant weight on the salary budget. And if Kamal Sowah also leaves this winter, the Bruges treasurer will be able to saber the bottle of champagne.
Not suitable for the Club system
In any case, it will be a big financial loss. Indeed, the Club had offered 9 million euros to Leicester to recruit him in the summer of 2021. However, the Ghanaian never broke through and only scored two goals and delivered five assists in 52 appearances with the Blauw & Zwart.
A famous contrast with his visit to Louvain, during which he distinguished himself. He scored 13 goals and provided 10 assists, but it was above all the constant threat he represented which convinced the Club. However, in a completely different game system and from a much more advanced position, he never justified his purchase price.
Solution under development
This is why the Club began negotiations with those around him to terminate his contract. His last appearance in an official match dates back to May 5 in the colors of Standard. A loan during which he also failed to convince, despite the presence of Carl Hoefkens, the coach with whom he had been most successful, on the bench.
The Club would therefore prefer to see him leave now, because his contract ends this summer his salary could be saved. The 24-year-old’s career is also at stake, because a sabbatical would not allow him to get back into the spotlight. It is for this reason that those around him would be inclined to terminate his contract, according to our information.
