TRANSFERS Once again, a young talent has signed a three-year professional contract with Anderlecht. This time it is Kylian Liema Olinga, a central defender who has been with Anderlecht since he was 8 years old.
"As a central defender, Kylian is known in Neerpede for his calmness on the ball and quality in the build-up. Because of his leadership skills, he wore the captain's armband at U16 on several occasions last season," is how Anderlecht describes the young talent
"Kylian is a versatile defender with an interesting physical profile and a wide range of skills. He has everything we need to continue his development at the club," adds academy director Mikkel Hemmersam.
Kylian Liema has a one-year older brother Kenny. The latter swapped Anderlecht for an Italian adventure at Torino last summer.
