The winter transfer carousel is running at full speed. Teams from home and abroad are busy rolling out their transfer plans. And during this time, the coaches are also rotating. Footnews brings together the main transfer information every day.
Jupiler Pro League
According to Dutch sources, Anderlecht have made an offer of 1.5 million euros for Cédric Hatenboer from Excelsior. Strange, because with Nathan De Cat and Nunzio Engwanda, the club has two very talented defensive midfielders among the Futures. The offer was reportedly turned down and the player is said to be particularly keen to return to Feyenoord, where he previously played in the youth categories.
Anderlecht will not exercise the 7 million euro option on Leander Dendoncker. However, RSCA might be willing to lower the price if the midfielder delivers top-level performances in the coming weeks.
At Standard, we found a successor to Isaac Price. Les Rouches hired Lazare Amani from Union SG. They also negotiated a purchase option of around 2.5 million euros.
The Union, for its part, is on the verge of signing 20-year-old striker Marc Giger from FC Schaffhausen. At KRC Genk, Mike Penders and Ibrahima Bangoura are doing very well. Penders does not rule out staying another year at Genk, Bangoura has no intention of leaving for the moment.
-At Club Brugge, Jorne Spileers has nothing left to prove. He barely had the opportunity to play under Nicky Hayen for almost a year. The Blauw and Zwart are open to a transfer.
Stranger
Johan Bakayoko would like to join the Bundesliga. Sky Sports is talking about a sum of 25 to 30 million euros, but that is certainly too little. Last summer, PSV refused higher offers.
Cyriel Dessers is another Belgian who could be transferred. Cagliari and Monza would like to bring the Rangers striker back to Serie A.
At Manchester United, we have finally gotten rid of one of the most costly purchasing mistakes in the club’s history. Anthony, the man with 100 million euros, is transferred to Real Betis on a rental contract.
