Belgian football transfer activity

Overview

Belgian football clubs continue intensive transfer activity as the season approaches. KRC Genk is reportedly considering the sale of 24-year-old Moroccan wingback Zakaria El Ouahdi to AC Milan, seeking a fee between €15 million and €17 million. Club Brugge has officially signed Matteo Dams and remains interested in winger Romain Esse from Crystal Palace. Striker Romeo Vermant has reaffirmed his commitment to the club after they rejected a €15 million offer from RC Strasbourg; Vermant characterized the speculation as an “emotional rollercoaster”. Additionally, former Club Brugge player Krépin Diatta has emerged as a potential target for AS Roma following the expiration of his contract with AS Monaco. Royale Union Saint-Gilloise has secured Denzel De Roeve on a contract until mid-2031, while OH Leuven is reportedly close to signing Jonathan Panzo on a free transfer. RSCA Anderlecht continues to search for a ball-playing striker, a creative midfielder, and an explosive winger, pursuing Santi Garcia for approximately €8 million while facing the potential departure of Moussa N'Diaye to Schalke 04. Anderlecht has reached an agreement with Frosinone Calcio for the permanent transfer of Ilias Koutsoupias. Arthur Vermeeren has returned to Royal Antwerp FC on loan to stabilize his career following stints at Atlético Madrid, RB Leipzig, and Marseille. The 21-year-old midfielder, who consulted with former coach Mark van Bommel during the process, described his summer transfer window as “difficult and unplanned”. Antwerp is also nearing a deal to sell Jules Ahoka to Sunderland AFC for over €10 million. KAA Gent has re-signed Michel-Ange Balikwisha on loan, and KV Mechelen has signed defender Mike Eerdhuijzen from FC Utrecht. Regarding his loan move, Vermeeren noted that while the return was not originally planned, he was convinced by the decision and credited Marc Overmars’ knowledge of his qualities for facilitating the move.
