Interested in recruiting a new top striker, Sporting Anderlecht is targeting Younes Ebnoutalib, co-top scorer in 2. Bundesliga. The price asked by his club, Elversberg, however, constitutes an obstacle.
Olivier Renard is not fully convinced by the top striker position at Anderlecht, currently occupied by Luis Vazquez, Mihajlo Cvetkovic and Adriano Bertaccini.
The Argentinian does not convince, while the Serbian is still young. The former RFC Liège and Sint-Truiden player, for his part, is considered more of a second striker. The RSCA could therefore recruit a new center forward during the winter transfer window.
Anderlecht on the trail of Younes Ebnoutalib, striker for 10 million euros
According to Sky Sports Germany, Olivier Renard and Anderlecht have positioned themselves for Younes Ebnoutalib, a 22-year-old German striker who scored 11 goals in 16 2. Bundesliga games with SV Elversberg.
Under contract until 2028, Younes Ebnoutalib is already attracting the interest of several clubs, including Villarreal, Betis Sevilla and Celtic Glasgow, but especially from Eintracht Frankfurt, which is holding the rope and continuing its efforts.
No final agreement has yet been reached, negotiations are continuing with the various interested clubs. The main obstacle remains the price asked by Elversberg, close to 10 million euros, while Transfer market estimates the player at only six million. This request somewhat cools the contenders, who nevertheless remain in the running.
