Yorbe Vertessen to face Anderlecht in Europa League return to Belgium

RB Salzburg attacker Yorbe Vertessen will return to Belgium this Thursday for a Europa League match against Anderlecht. Ahead of the fixture, the 25-year-old revealed that Anderlecht had previously attempted to sign him, but he declined the opportunity because he felt settled at PSV and believed he was too young for the move.

Vertessen has seen a resurgence in form since joining RB Salzburg on a permanent deal following a successful loan spell. Austrian journalist Simon Urhofer noted that the player is performing better this season by playing primarily as a winger rather than a central striker, a position that better suits his physical attributes and pressing capabilities. He enters the match in good form, having recently recorded a goal and an assist.
