It is reported that Saint-Etienne is monitoring Genk's 21-year-old striker, Aaron Bibout. The Cameroonian player was transferred to Genk last summer from the Swedish second-division team Västerås for a €2.2 million fee. For the senior team, he has scored three goals in eighteen games and subsequently lost his starting place, whereas he initially scored ten goals in sixteen matches for Jong Genk. Stade Rennes, Strasbourg, and Lille are among several other French clubs also monitoring the player. Genk could sell the player after one season. His contract with the Belgian club is valid until June 2029. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €2.0 million. During the transfer negotiations in July 2025, the asking price from Västerås SK was reportedly approximately €2.7 million. It was also said that initial bids from Genk of less than €2 million were rejected.
