KRC Genk is also currently on Spanish soil preparing for the second half of the season. In the meantime, ‘Football Manager’ Dimitri De Condé is busy with the winter transfer period. Even if the big outgoing transfers seem destined only for next summer.
After Racing won the regular competition last season and subsequently finished second in the final standings, several strong players could logically count on interest. But in the end Genk managed to keep the selection essentially intact. Among trendsetters, only Mike Trésor has been successful.
Despite mixed results in recent months, Limburgians want to repeat the same scenario in January. While Gerardo Arteaga could leave on the right terms and Joseph Paintsil would have a release clause, the intention is for other strong players to remain on board.
Goudklomp El Khannouss
De Condé made this clear this week. “We know that some kids are being mistreated, but the objective remains to keep them here. None of the great talents, like El Khannous, will leave,” the sports coach said. Spouse.
It is no coincidence that De Condé abandoned the name El Khannouss. Genk’s golden boy made his breakthrough last season and also showed up at the World Cup with the surprisingly strong Morocco. In the current year he has had some declines, but his great talent is beyond doubt.
Record De Ketelaere
There is therefore no doubt that El Khannouss, who will be able to shine in the Africa Cup of Nations in the coming weeks, will end up moving to a top European competition. However, this comes at a high price. Second The newspaper Genk want to make the golden boy the most expensive outgoing transfer ever in the Jupiler Pro League.
That record currently still belongs to Charles De Ketelaere, sold from Club Brugge to Milan for around 32 million euros + bonus. Interested teams will therefore have to shell out a lot of money. El Khannouss recently extended his contract until mid-2027, meaning Racing have a strong negotiating position.
