Ivorian striker Krasso linked to Anderlecht

TRANSFERS The next striker name to be linked to Anderlecht is that of Jean-Philippe Krasso. The brand new Ivorian international is due to end his contract at Saint-Etienne in June and does not want to renew. According to France Blue, Anderlecht is one of the clubs now wanting him.


The 25-year-old Krasso has played for Saint-Etienne since 2020. In the Ligue 2, he has already accounted for eight goals and four assists in 12 games this season. Previous seasons did not go as well. Last season, he played half a year for Saint-Etienne in the Ligue 1 and scored once. After the winter break, he came out on loan for Ajaccio in the Ligue 2. There he was a base player and scored four goals.

Saint-Etienne wants to re-sign Krasso, who made his debut with the Ivory Coast national team in September, but they think the offer is too low. Clubs from the Ligue 1 (including Montpellier), Germany, the Netherlands (including Feyenoord) and Belgium are said to be showing interest. That Belgian club is Anderlecht, it sounds.
