Red Devil to Anderlecht? ‘It would be great’

At RSC Anderlecht, the situation is remarkably quiet on the transfer front at the moment, so we continue to wait for the first acquisitions in the summer trade. That will undoubtedly change in the coming weeks. Theo Leoni already has one dream name in mind.

In two weeks, the Purple & White will open their new season with a competitive match against STVV. In the lead-up to that match, coach Brian Reimer’s selection was not yet complete. Anderlecht saw several players leave mid-season, but they have not yet brought in any new players.

But for now, there is no reason to panic. Given the European Championship and the Copa America, it took a little longer before the transfer circuit started to pick up speed. In addition, Sports CEO Jesper Fredberg is taking his time to find the best possible deals.

Lukaku’s dream

Furthermore, some targets have proven to be unachievable at the moment. Also some (candidates) of the Red Devils. For example, Koen Casteels opted for a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia. Dennis Praet is also in the picture, but he wants to return to Italy.

However, one devil has opened the door to purple and white. At least in the long term. Romelu Lukaku, for example, recently stated that he will one day return to his youth club. “It will happen,” he said in early June. “I think it’s much sooner than people think.” from right to left.

too expensive nowadays

Leoni certainly sees a return for Lukaku. Although the purple-and-white midfielder is aware that such a return is unlikely to happen this summer. “It would be great if he came back. Playing with Lukaku at Anderlecht would be really great. But given his transfer price of over €30m, we will have to wait until he is a free agent. He is capable of anything.” In order to return to Anderlecht, he could also help us with his experience, just as Vertonghen, Schmeichel and Delaney did. Sudpress.
