Bouke Boersma is transferring from De Graafschap, having successfully completed his medical tests. An official confirmation of the move is expected today. KV Mechelen is paying just over one million euros for the 20-year-old Boersma. The fee is an immediate reinvestment of the money received for Lauberbach's transfer. According to Sacha Tavolieri, Boersma was expected in Mechelen on Wednesday to sign his contract and finalize his permanent transfer from De Graafschap. Tavolieri also stated that the medical examination was successfully carried out yesterday.
According to Voetbal International, Bouke Boersma will continue his career at KV Mechelen. Boersma had already reached a personal agreement with Mechelen, but was awaiting negotiations between the Belgian club and De Graafschap. Mechelen will pay a transfer fee of 1.1 million euros for Boersma, an amount that can increase through bonuses. De Graafschap have negotiated a resale percentage as part of the deal.
According to Voetbalprimeur.nl, Bouke Boersma is expected to leave De Graafschap for KV Mechelen. The Belgian club secured the striker ahead of Go Ahead Eagles. Boersma was not included in De Graafschap's squad on Monday evening due to what were described as minor complaints, and a transfer to KV Mechelen appears imminent.
According to De Telegraaf, KV Mechelen is in advanced negotiations with De Graafschap regarding the transfer fee for Bouke Boersma. It is reported that a broad agreement on Boersma's personal terms is already in place. It is also reported that De Superboeren can expect a transfer fee of approximately one million euros.
KV Mechelen has contacted De Graafschap about 20-year-old Dutch centre-forward Bouke Boersma. It is not known if KV Mechelen has already made an offer to De Graafschap. In the current Keuken Kampioen Divisie season, Boersma has scored 12 goals and provided 2 assists in 21 appearances. Other clubs, including Go Ahead Eagles, Sparta Rotterdam, and Avellino, have also been linked with the player. In January 2026, it was reported that Go Ahead Eagles and Italian club Avellino both made offers of €1,000,000; De Graafschap was said to have accepted Avellino's bid before the player declined the move. His current market value, according to Transfermarkt, is €450k.
