Club Brugge seeks exit for striker Gustaf Nilsson
Club Brugge is attempting to facilitate the departure of Swedish striker Gustaf Nilsson as the club seeks to manage its offensive roster. The 29-year-old forward, who joined the Belgian side in 2024, has struggled to secure a consistent role, appearing for limited minutes in both domestic and European competitions.
While Hertha BSC of the German second division has expressed interest in the striker, Nilsson has reportedly resisted a move. The player holds significant leverage due to a contract that runs until June 2028 and a substantial salary, making him selective about potential destinations. This impasse complicates Club Brugge's efforts to streamline its attacking depth and manage its salary cap.
