‘Enormously active KRC Genk closes monster week with a spectacular transfer’ | Football24

KRC Genk and Dimitri De Condé have had a busy week. Both inbound and outbound, the Limburgers are busy on the transfer market. Previously, Carstensen and Galarza were attracted, among others.

But things are also going fast for Genk in the outgoing field. They previously lost to Cyriel Dessers, Kristian Thorstvedt and Junya Ito. They all went to a European top competition. According to Gianluigi Longari — transfer watcher for SportItalia — a fourth name would now be about to leave.

It would be central defender Jhon Lucumi. According to Longari, the Colombian is close to a switch to Serie A. Middenmoter Bolonga would like to strengthen their defense with Lucumi. If the transfer goes through, it means the loss of another strong holder for Genk.

It is also striking how Genk has had a particularly busy week on the transfer market. Lucumi already started three games in the base at Genk this season. In fact, he played them all out. It would therefore be a big loss for the Limburgers if they lose Lucumi.

Substitute

In addition to Lucumi, Genk has Cuesta, McKenzie, Dewaest and the injured Sadick. They could replace Lucumi directly, although Cuesta has until now mainly been found on the side of his compatriot. The future will tell whether Genk deems it necessary to recruit a replacement for Lucumi.
