Ashimeru: Shock Move to Belgian Club?

Last weekend he was in the starting line-up at RSC Anderlecht, but he is still at a dead end at Anderlecht. And so Majeed Ashimeru will probably leave the capital this winter. He would have already found his new destination… at Racing Genk!

Arrived from Red Bull Salzburg in the summer of 2021 for 1.5 million euros, Majeed Ashimeru started his adventure at Sporting Anderlecht as a starter, before gradually losing his place in the purple and white.

Very few playing minutes for the time being

After six games in the Champions’ Play-offs last season, he was left out of the squad entirely. Yet he did not leave Lotto Park in the summer. He is among the unwanted players that Olivier Renard could not sell and still receives a significant salary… without playing.

Four days ago, the Ghanaian midfielder made an unexpected comeback by coming on half an hour before the end during the Challenger Pro League match between RSCA Futures and RWDM. Will this get him some playing time before he leaves? It’s likely.

Majeed Ashimeru is about to relaunch… at Racing Genk

Majeed Ashimeru should indeed leave Sporting Anderlecht this winter, as Olivier Renard has been looking for a way out for him for months. However, the 28-year-old could see a revival at a rather surprising club.

According to information from Africafoot Majeed Ashimeru has reached an agreement with… Racing Genk, which he should join at the beginning of January. Dissatisfied with his playing time in the capital, he would have to sign a three-year contract in Limburg to revive his career.
