After the game against Club Brugge, Ivan Leko asked for reinforcements at KAA Gent. And so a number of lines were thrown out, although there is already a first serious damper to note from the transfer camp.
After the match against Club Brugge, Ivan Leko once again hampered that he would really like to have reinforcement if the Buffalos wanted to play against the big teams in the Jupiler Pro League.
KAA Gent wanted to strike on the transfer market and had set his sights on striker Rafiu Durosinmi. The 22-year-old Nigeriaan van Viktoria Plzn even refused to train in the past few days to enforce a transfer.

According to transfer expert Rudy Galetti, Ghent had already made a first offer for the player to be able to lure him away from Viktoria Plzen, but that was not enough for the Czechs.
No transfer for rafiu durosinmi this summer
Transfermarkt estimates its value at 7 million euros and so they wanted to go but butter at the fish. Glasgow Rangers and Borussia Mönchengladbach also saw something in the player.
The striker refused to train for a few days in the Czech Republic, but would now have come out with his club. He is not allowed to leave and will therefore stay with PLZEN at least until January.
