Anderlecht extensions; Brugge retains Tresoldi

Entities: Club Brugge · Manchester United · Nicolò Tresoldi · Bart Verhaeghe · Chelsea FC

Overview

Under Vítor Bruno, Anderlecht continues to prioritize on‑field performance, extending 17‑year‑old Joshua Nga Kana to 2029 and negotiating longer deals for academy prospects Jayden Onia Seke, Noah Kalonji and 16‑year‑old Noa Ojea to protect them from foreign interest. The club’s transfer focus includes Icelandic left‑back Logi Tómasson, priced at €3.5‑5 million, while preparing for the Europa League second‑qualifying round against Hammarby on 21 July 2026.

Club Brugge reaffirmed its stance on striker Nicolo Tresoldi, turning down AS Roma’s €35 million offer and emphasizing that the player is essential to the squad. On 30 July the club reiterated that no offer, however large, would change its position; Manchester United, Chelsea and Leeds United were reported to be monitoring the 21‑year‑old Germany U‑21 forward, who confirmed his commitment to remain for the 2026‑27 campaign with three years left on his contract. By 1 August Manchester United intensified scouting, with the English side estimating a €50 million fee and viewing Tresoldi as a long‑term addition for Michael Carrick’s attack. Brugge chairman Bart Verhaeghe again stated the club prefers to keep the striker, noting that a move could affect fellow forward Joshua Zirkzee and that Juventus have also shown interest.

In the Belgian market, Westerlo secured Danish right‑back Lasse Flø Borregaard on a four‑year, €1 million deal, marking its seventh signing of the window.
