K.R.C. Genk remains firm in negotiations over Konstantinos Karetsas. The Belgian club demands €40 million for the 18-year-old defender, despite an increased bid from Borussia Dortmund. AC Milan is also interested and could make a quick offer if Rafael Leão is sold.
What happened?
Borussia Dortmund raised their offer to €29 million plus bonuses and a 10% resale percentage. Karetsas was already convinced by the project in Germany, but Genk stuck to their asking price of €40 million. Negotiations are now on hold, but the next few days could be decisive.
Why is this important for K.R.C. Genk?
Karetsas is one of the club's biggest talents and a key player in defense. Keeping the player or securing a high transfer fee is crucial for Genk's future. The club has already indicated they will not lower their asking price.
What comes next?
AC Milan is interested and could make a quick offer if Rafael Leão is sold to Fenerbahce. If that happens, Milan could immediately come in with a €40 million bid. Dortmund is trying to buy time, but Genk remains firm. The next few days will be decisive for Karetsas' future.
