Standard Liège still has a long way to go to return to the top of Belgian football. The uncertain situation of Rouches also has serious consequences for its academy. While the reserve team is now playing at the third level and even risks further relegation, one of the club’s great hopes is preparing to leave Vurige Stede.
René Muteba on his way to Bayern Munich
At Standard, the young sixteen-year-old striker René Muteba is a promising talent. A Belgian international with the U17s, he scored five goals in as many matches, attracting the attention of foreign clubs.
The striker is now almost guaranteed to join Bayern Munich, seduced by his qualities. This transfer will bring some financial resources to Standard, because Muteba, under contract until 2026, already has professional player status in Liège.
Muteba route
Muteba joined Standard in the summer of 2020 from La Gantoise. Previously, he also played for Waasland-Beveren, Lierse SK, KSK Heist, and KV Mechelen.
With this transfer, Standard sees one of its great hopes leaving for Germany, a departure which should materialize very soon, according to our sources.
