Anderlecht and Club Brugge Transfer News: Kasper Dolberg and Romelu Lukaku Updates

Komt er een héél opvallende terugkeer aan? Kasper Dolberg wordt aangeboden bij RSC Anderlecht en Club Brugge April 16, 2026 By Daniel Richardson, Editor-in-Chief Archysport RSC Anderlecht and Club Brugge have both been approached regarding a potential return for Danish striker Kasper Dolberg, according to Belgian media reports citing sources close to the player. The developments come amid growing speculation about the 28-year-old’s future at Ajax following a disappointing season in Amsterdam. Dolberg, who returned to Ajax last summer after a successful stint with Anderlecht, has struggled to replicate his Belgian form in the Eredivisie. Ajax paid €10 million to re-sign him from Anderlecht last summer, but the striker has managed just three goals in 19 appearances across all competitions this season. His limited playing time and lack of impact have fueled rumors of an imminent departure from the Dutch capital. According to reports from Belgiumsoccer.be, Dolberg has been offered to both Anderlecht and Club Brugge through intermediaries. The reports indicate that while Anderlecht would face significant financial hurdles in meeting his salary demands, Club Brugge has shown more cautious interest in the possibility of his return. The Danish international’s situation at Ajax appears increasingly tenuous. Media reports suggest he has been informed by the club that he needs to locate a solution for his future, despite having a contract that runs until June 2029. His status as a regular starter has diminished, with the striker failing to establish himself as a key contributor to Ajax’s attacking efforts this season. Dolberg’s previous spell with Anderlecht was highly successful, during which he scored 34 goals in 73 appearances across all competitions. This productive period in Brussels contrasted sharply with his current struggles in Amsterdam, where he has managed only three goals in the same number of appearances this season. Anderlecht’s current stance on retaining Dolberg appears complex. While Voetbalprimeur.be reported earlier that the club considers him “not for sale” and values his contributions both on and off the field, the latest reports suggest intermediaries have approached the Belgian club regarding his availability. This creates a nuanced picture of the striker’s potential availability despite Anderlecht’s public stance on wanting to retain him. Club Brugge’s reported interest appears more measured, with sources indicating the club is not immediately prioritizing the pursuit of Dolberg. The report suggests that several factors would need to align before any potential move to Jan Breydel Stadium could materialize, though specific conditions were not detailed in the available reports. The Danish striker’s international experience remains substantial, with 56 caps and 12 goals for Denmark according to his Wikipedia profile. His career trajectory has seen him move from Ajax to Nice, with loan spells at Sevilla and Hoffenheim, before his successful return to Anderlecht and subsequent transfer back to Amsterdam last summer. As of April 16, 2026, no official statements have been issued by Ajax, Anderlecht, or Club Brugge regarding the reported approaches. The situation remains fluid, with the player’s future likely to depend on whether suitable offers emerge from clubs capable of meeting his contractual obligations. The coming weeks will be crucial in determining Dolberg’s next destination, with the summer transfer window approaching and the striker’s current form at Ajax continuing to raise questions about his long-term fit at the club. Fans of both Belgian clubs will be watching closely for any developments in this evolving situation. Would you like to share your thoughts on Kasper Dolberg’s potential return to Belgium?
