Lavia on his way to Manchester City

YOUTH - TRANSFERS It looks like RSC Anderlecht is about to lose the battle for its super talent. 16-year-old Roméo Lavia has decided not to sign a new contract and may move to the Premier League. More specifically to Manchester City.


Several English clubs followed the defensive midfielder, including Liverpool and Manchester United were also in the running. But City seems to make it.

A transfer that hits hard at RSC Anderlecht. Lavia was one of the key points in the 'RSCA 20-25' plan. The club sat also several times together with the entourage of Lavia and had a multi-year contract ready for the player. But it now seems to have lost the battle.
