Anderlecht started their winter exchanges very early, as a first transfer was announced at the end of November with the arrival of young Japanese striker Keisuke Goto. But it won’t stop there, because considerable activity is still expected on both the incoming and outgoing sides.
2 incoming transfer priorities in January
Two more central defenders are expected at Lotto Park. A central defender who must make an immediate impact as a backup to Jan Vertonghen and/or Zeno Debast, and a high potential who will have time to mature in the shadows.
Furthermore, Anderlecht is still looking for a quick striker on the wing to make up for the absence of Francis Amuzu. Haruya Fuji has already been mentioned for the high-potential position as defender. The other names of the targets are not yet known.
4 important outgoing candidates
Some movement is also expected at Parco Lotto on the outward side. At Sporting there are many players made redundant who have no prospect of playing and waste money on the bench or even in the stands.
The newspaper proposes Amadou Diawara, Kristian Arnstad, Alexis Flips and Benito Raman as main candidates for departures in January. This quartet hardly plays for Anderlecht and have been at the club for much longer.
Has Schmeichel already left too?
Kasper Schmeichel is also linked with a departure. Second talk about SPORT the Danish goalkeeper is in the interest of Chelsea, Newcastle United and Sheffield United.
For the moment these rumors cannot be defined as concrete. A return to the Premier League would be truly remarkable, because Schmeichel is already 37 years old and only joined Anderlecht in the summer. Furthermore, he is not free from controversy there, although the criticism has since subsided after his recent excellent performances against Antwerp, Genk and Cercle Brugge.
