Kevin Amarois transfer to KRC Genk

Overview

Uruguayan footballer Kevin Amarois has transferred from Liverpool Montevideo to the Belgian club KRC Genk. The 22-year-old defender signed a five-season contract, with club officials describing him as an “athletic, offensive-minded defender” who has received three call-ups to the Uruguayan national team.

Reports indicate that Amarois’s market value has declined since reaching a peak in November 2025. While Liverpool Montevideo previously attempted to negotiate a transfer to River Plate of Argentina for approximately ten million dollars for 70% of his sporting rights, those talks failed. The eventual sale to Genk was reported to be in the range of four million dollars for 80% of his rights.
