The start of the winter mercato is gradually getting very close. It is quite possible that the Jupiler Pro League will lose some highlights again next month. There are certainly some goldcrests in demand, especially at Club Brugge and Union.
They will of course prefer not to see any important players leave in the middle of the season, but there is a lot of pressure on some of their key players. They carefully followed developments in Stuttgart.

Vermant and David mentioned at Stuttgart
After all, the German cup winner will sign a striker in January. At the end of the summer they let Nick Woltemade leave for Newcastle for a monster sum and they ultimately did not find a replacement after they canceled the arrival of Hyeon-gyu Oh from Genk for 28 million euros at the last minute.
In recent weeks, Romeo Vermant and Promise David, among others, were put forward as candidates to fill the vacancy. Club and Union had to fear, but now they seem to be able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Germans get another striker
After all, Stuttgart seems to be taking a different path. According to German media, Jeremy Arevalo is ultimately on his way to Die Schwaben. The 20-year-old Ecuadorian has already scored seven times this season in the Spanish second division for Racing Santander.
As a result, he was highly sought after, but Stuttgart seems to be bringing him in. They would pay about 7 million euros for this, a lot less than it might have cost Vermant or David.
