Anderlecht needs a striker, Besnik Hasi reiterated this at a press conference. Keisuke Goto is in good shape, but he has closed the door on a return this winter.
By scoring a double, Keisuke Goto took Sint-Truiden to victory on the Standard pitch. The Japanese striker has scored 8 goals this season, making him the top scorer for STVV…but also for Anderlecht, to whom he still belongs.
It’s no secret that the Mauves are looking for reinforcement at the forefront. For now, Thorgan Hazard (6 goals) and Nilson Angulo (4) are Sporting’s best scorers. Mihajlo Cvetkovic is deserving but has not scored for eight games, just like Adriano Bertaccini.
“Of course I want a striker,” Besnik Hasi has already admitted. “Dolberg has left and we know Vazquez’s situation. Keisuke absolutely wanted playing time which we could hardly guarantee. At Stayen, he is in an environment that suits him better in terms of language.”
Focused on his task
Seeing Goto take the penalty and score at Lotto Park showed this: Saint-Trond may be a direct competitor for his owner club in the ranking, that will not prevent him from giving his all to allow his team to finish ahead of Sporting.
Yesterday, after his double at Sclessin, he confirmed it again: “Me, returning to Anderlecht this winter? There is no chance. That is absolutely certain. I will not come back prematurely. I want to continue playing for Saint-Trond until the end of the championship.”
