TRANSFERS From Italy, reports are becoming increasingly persistent that Anderlecht have set their sights on Sebastiano Esposito of Inter Milan. Esposito is a striker of almost 20 years old. He already made his debut for Inter Milan, but played last season on loan at the Swiss Basel.


Barely 16 years old, Esposito made his debut for Inter Milan in March 2019. In December of that year, he scored his first (and so far only) goal for the Nerazzurri. Due to great competition, including from Romelu Lukaku, he was rented during the past two seasons. First to SPAL and Venezia in Serie B. The past season to FC Basel in Switzerland.

At Basel, Esposito scored six times in the league and once in the Conference League. Across all competitions, he also gave nine assists.

Anderlecht would now try to bring him to Brussels. Purple-White may be hoping to repeat the success with Nmecha and Zirkzee. They too were young top talents who failed to get a chance at an absolute top club and exploded at the Lotto Park. Unlike the aforementioned duo, Anderlecht would now like to include a realistic purchase option in the rental agreement. There is talk of 5 million euros.

To be continued.
