Potential loss of three players threatens Genk
The record sale of Konstantinos Karetsas seemed to be the big news of the Genk summer transfer market, but the Limburgers may not be done selling yet. Three players from the current squad are being linked to a departure. Especially around Zakaria El Ouahdi, the foreign interest seems to be getting more concrete.
Why it matters for K.R.C. Genk
The Moroccan right-back could be one of the next players to leave the Cegeka Arena. El Ouahdi has been in the spotlight for the past few seasons and that has not gone unnoticed abroad. AC Milan is keeping a close eye on his situation, according to Sacha Tavolieri. The Italian giants would have placed El Ouahdi on their shortlist and have already made contact to explore the possibilities of a transfer.
What comes next?
That's not all. The Limburg Herald expects that Jarne Steuckers and Noah Adedeji-Sternberg may also leave the club before the transfer market closes. Especially around the latter, there has been a lot of unrest for a long time. Adedeji-Sternberg was highly sought after by Club Brugge and his future has become one of the most discussed topics in the Belgian transfer market.
K.R.C. Genk in the Jupiler Pro League
Currently, K.R.C. Genk is 12th in the Jupiler Pro League, with 0 points, 0 wins, 0 draws, and 1 loss from 1 game. The club is 3 points behind the leaders, Union St. Gilloise. In the last game, Genk scored 1 goal and conceded 2, resulting in a -1 goal difference. The upcoming games will be a challenge for the club to maintain their points and continue to fight for the title.
Conclusion
With the potential loss of three players, K.R.C. Genk is on the verge of losing a significant amount of quality. For Dimitri De Condé, the coming weeks will be very busy, with potential outgoing deals likely to have consequences for the remaining incoming transfer work.
