There are still no new arrivals in Anderlecht, yet some big names are being mentioned in the media. The club earned quite some money on outgoing transfers already and chairman Vanden Stock announced reinforcements. An overview:


Daniel Van Buyten could join Anderlecht. The Belgian international is at the end of his contract for Bayern Munich and is thinking about his retirement. His excellent performance on the World Cup convinced Anderlecht manager Van Holsbeeck he could be a good reinforcement. Therefore, the club made him an offer. It's up to Van Buyten to decide now, but it seems like he's more in favour of retiring at the moment.

Mbark Boussoufa's name was mentioned as well. The former Anderlecht player is currently playing in the Russian league. His transfer price is too high at the moment. Manager Van Holsbeeck also declared his club doesn't need Boussoufa. He prefers giving chances to Anderlecht's upcoming talents.

Kanu is another former Anderlecht player who's playing in Russia. The Brazilian would like to return to Brussels though, where his family still lives. He costs around 3 million, a price the Mauves can easily pay. Yet Kanu is not a priority, despite the fact the player is urging Anderlecht to seal the deal. The Belgian champions prefer spending their money on a defensive midfielder first.

Ibrahima Conté, a winger of Zulte Waregem, is closer to a deal with the Brussels' club. The Anderlecht staff is convinced of his qualities and is considering using Sacha Kljestan in deal to land the player. Conté himself is keen on playing for RSC Anderlecht.

Vadis Odjidja is a former Anderlecht player who's currently active for Club Bruges. The midfielder would like to leave, but still has a two year contract. He prefers a transfer to a foreign top club, but not many teams are showing interest. Therefore, Anderlecht could have a chance in landing the player.

Eric Bauthéac is also being scouted by RSCA. He's currently active for the French club OGC Nice. He's 26 years old, has the French nationality and prefers to play on the left wing. Hannover and Hellas Verona are interested as well.
