Official: Dolberg is an Anderlecht player

TRANSFERS Anderlecht has made its first summer transfer: Dane Kasper Dolberg signed a four-season contract. The club announced this. The 25-year-old striker will be given the number 12. Dolberg will board the plane today with his new teammates for the training camp in Austria.


"I am very happy with this new challenge. It was not a difficult choice to move to such a big club like Anderlecht," Dolberg said, ignoring the fact that talks dragged on for a long time anyway. "I have known Anderlecht for a long time and I immediately felt that I can fit in well with the project and the style of play."

"After the long talks with both Jesper and the coach, I have a lot of confidence in the club's project," he continued. "Anyway, I wanted to go to a club where I felt comfortable and where I feel there is something to gain. That's why I'm here."

Fredberg: "Investing in players for the long term"

CEO Sports Jesper Fredberg is delighted to have succeeded in bringing in his main target. "We are extremely pleased with the arrival of Kasper Dolberg. Kasper has already shown his qualities at his previous clubs and with the Danish national team," the Dane said of his compatriot.

"We want to work with him to realize his full potential, as we firmly believe he has everything he needs to succeed here. Kasper is incredibly hungry and ambitious to take the next step with us. His arrival is also part of our strategy to invest in players for the long term."

40-time international

Despite his still young age, Dolberg can already present fine noble credentials, although things have been more difficult in recent years. Dolberg broke through at Ajax and secured a top transfer to Nice in 2019, which paid more than €20 million for him. In his first season on the Azure coast, he was voted Player of the Season. Afterwards, things slowed down and loan spells to Sevilla and Hoffenheim were also unsuccessful.

Dolberg counts forty international matches for Denmark in which he scored 11 times
