Anderlecht and Trabzonspor were close to an agreement for the loan transfer of Danylo Sikan. However, the deal collapsed due to disagreement over the loan conditions and Sikan's salary demands. Multiple sources confirm the deal is now off and Anderlecht has ended its search for a new striker for this window.

Anderlecht has submitted a formal bid to Trabzonspor for 24-year-old Ukrainian striker Danylo Sikan, as per reports in Turkish media from Yağız Sabuncuoğlu. It remains unclear whether the proposal is for a permanent move or a loan, which could potentially include a purchase option. Sikan, who transferred to the Turkish side from Shakhtar Donetsk for €6 million in January, has largely been used as a substitute. Previously, Trabzonspor turned down a loan offer for the player from Antalyaspor. Sikan is contracted to Trabzonspor until June 2029, and Transfermarkt lists his market value at an estimated €6 million.
