Bart Verhaeghe has indicated that retaining 24-year-old winger Christos Tzolis is no longer possible for Club Brugge, and the club will grant him his transfer. Tzolis desires a move to FC Barcelona, although he considers that possibility unrealistic, and several Premier League clubs have also been linked with the player. Recent reports from May 2026 state Club Brugge's asking price is around €40 million, after a bid of around €35 million was rejected earlier in 2026.
