KRC Genk Signs Top Scorer: Official Transfer News

Racing Genk remained active in the transfer market until the end and acquired additional offensive strength. The reinforcement is intended for Jong Genk.

Racing Genk has yet to strike on the transfer market. The Limburgers have received further offensive reinforcement. Not for the first team, but for Jong Genk.

The Smurfs announced this through their official channels. Genk has discovered a new pearl in Congo: Elie Mpungu Kongolo. The 18-year-old attacker is on loan until the end of this season, with a purchase option.

Before he moved to Belgium, he was active in Congo at the Tout Puissant Les Anges academy. Now he gets the chance to prove himself abroad for the first time.

“The young attacker is considered to have a fast and goal-oriented profile. The Congolese second division is currently halfway through. In the first round he made a name for himself with 16 goals in 19 games,” writes Genk.

“He was crowned top scorer of the first round and was also voted player of the first round. With the arrival of Mpungu Kongolo, KRC Genk is once again bringing in a young talent with a view to further development within the club structure.”
