TRANSFERS With the winter transfer window in full swing, there are all kinds of rumors about possible reinforcements at Anderlecht. The name of Japanese player Hayate Matsuda is also circulating, although in our opinion this is not a very reliable report. Let's outline the situation.


Matsuda is a 22-year-old midfielder/winger who plays for Hannover in Germany. The Germans snapped him up from Mito HollyHock in his home country for around a quarter of a million. His market value is now said to have risen to around two million. He currently plays in the second Bundesliga, alternating between a starting position and regular substitute.

Rumors are circulating that several Belgian clubs are interested in him, including Antwerp, Union, and Anderlecht. But as with the rumor surrounding Leon Bailey, Anderlecht must first slim down its core and is primarily looking for a striker and goalkeeper. Matsuda is probably an affordable option, but at the moment, this report is nothing more than a far-fetched rumor.
