Ahmed Touba Transfer from İstanbul Başakşehir to Anderlecht

Ahmed Touba is a more likely target for Anderlecht's A team. KV Mechelen is willing to activate his buy option of 800,000 euros with the intention to sell him immediately. He is also sought after in Spain.

Anderlecht is interested in signing Ahmed Touba, a Belgian Algerian defender, who is having a strong season. However, they will need to negotiate with KV Mechelen, who currently have him on loan and intend to exercise their purchase option.

RSC Anderlecht shows renewed interest in Ahmed Touba, the 27-year-old central defender from KV Mechelen. Anderlecht wanted to acquire him last winter, but Mechelen declined the offer. Touba is currently on loan from Basaksehir and is now available for transfer. KV Mechelen is considering activating the purchase option of 800,000 euros to sell him for a profit. Touba confirms that Anderlecht is still interested.

Ahmed Touba has been linked with a move to Anderlecht since January. The interest from Anderlecht is still present, and there have been contacts between the player and the club. Touba is on Anderlecht's radar, and discussions are expected to occur after the season. He is currently playing well at KV Mechelen and is considering his options, as he wants to make a significant decision at the age of 27.

Ahmed Touba is currently on loan at KV Mechelen from Basaksehir. Anderlecht showed interest in him in January, but it was not possible at that time. KV Mechelen has a purchase option and might buy him first and then sell him. Touba does not want to return to Turkey, making a transfer to Anderlecht a real possibility in the summer, according to Tim Matthys, the sporting director.

There were indications that Anderlecht might have been interested in Ahmed Touba, but this interest has been dismissed, as reported by Het Nieuwsblad. KV Mechelen, who currently has Touba on loan from Basaksehir, intends to activate the purchase option for just under a million euros and possibly sell him for a profit. Anderlecht, in the process of searching for defensive reinforcements due to Jan Vertonghen's unavailability and Mathias Zanka Jorgensen's potential departure, has decided to focus on other targets, including Siebe Van der Heyden and Nobel Mendy, thereby removing Touba from their shortlist.
