Before the preparation really got underway, K.R.C. Genk already sent a clear signal to the competition. The Limburgers have secured the services of Jeppe Erenbjerg, a player who made an impressive rise in Belgian football over the past two seasons. For many fans, the name of the Dane will be closely associated with the success story of Zulte Waregem. When he arrived in Belgium in 2024, he was relatively unknown. Two years later, he leaves as one of the key players of the club that managed to maintain itself at the highest level. Erenbjerg quickly grew into a key player at the Gaverbeek. His attacking performance drew attention. With goals, assists, and a constant presence between the lines, he proved that he is more than a classic midfielder. This was also not overlooked in Genk. The club was looking for players who can make an immediate impact and saw in the 26-year-old Dane a profile that perfectly fits that ambition. The Limburgers would reportedly put around 5.5 million euros on the table to finalize the transfer. In the Cegeka Arena, Erenbjerg will immediately have a long-term commitment. He signed a contract until 2030, which indicates how much trust Genk has in him. After a season in which Genk narrowly missed European football, the club wants to take another step forward. The arrival of Erenbjerg fits perfectly into that ambition.
