Aiham Ousou, who is Charleroi's 26-year-old defender and was the captain last season, is close to leaving the club. After rejecting an approach from AA Gent in January, it is now reported that Charleroi is prepared to agree to a transfer to Ludogorets. Ousou is said to be seeking the move to the Bulgarian runners-up due to the opportunity to play in Europe and earn a higher salary. The transfer fee for Charleroi is expected to be between €3 and €4 million, which represents a profit on the €1.8 million the club originally paid to Slavia Praag. The deal is almost finalized, with only a few details remaining, and an official confirmation is expected in the coming days.
