There is growing speculation about a potential return to Belgium for Aster Vranckx, a 23-year-old Belgian international who is in a difficult period of his career. The midfielder has 9 caps for his country and is set to return to VfL Wolfsburg following a loan at Sassuolo, where he struggled for playing time and made 15 appearances in Serie A this season. Although he has a contract with the German club that runs until mid-2029, his future there is uncertain, and a move to a Belgian top club is being suggested. KRC Genk is mentioned as a potential destination, along with other clubs such as Anderlecht, Club Brugge, and Union SG. Genk, Anderlecht, and Club Brugge were also reportedly interested in Vranckx before he moved from KV Mechelen to Wolfsburg for a fee of €8 million. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €7.00m. The loan to Sassuolo reportedly included a purchase option of €9 million, and in September 2024, a €12 million fee was reportedly agreed with Fiorentina.
