Griffin Yow leaving Westerlo?
Voetbalnieuws.be reports that Griffin Yow has moved to New England Revolution for 450,000 euro. The report mentions that Yow's new agent spread rumours about Club Brugge and Union SG to attract interest. Last year, Westerlo had rejected an offer of between 1 to 1.2 million euro from Malmö, along with certain proposals from The Championship. An attempt by Westerlo to renegotiate Yow's contract failed because the initial proposal was too low, leading Yow to lose interest in further discussions. His previous club will be paid 30% of the added value from the sale, which is 108,000 euro, and Westerlo also secured a 30% resale percentage.

New England Revolution made a bid for Griffin Yow, who was interested in the transfer because he could play in Major League Soccer and attract attention from the national team. Tom Bogert reported that New England Revolution are nearing a deal to acquire Griffin Yow from Westerlo. The deal is agreed but needs to be finalized. The fee is just over $400k, according to Tom Bogert. Westerlo would receive 350,000 euro, which is four times what he cost.

D.C. United has shown concrete interest in Griffin Yow. The initial bid was 500,000 euros, which is not sufficient. Yow previously transferred from D.C. United to Westerlo for 90,000 euros three years ago. D.C. United is entitled to 35% of the profit from Yow's next transfer, allowing them to potentially acquire him at a significant discount. Westerlo initially considered a transfer fee of 3 to 4 million euros, but this is challenging due to Yow's contract expiring in one year. Yow himself is interested in a new challenge and rejected a contract extension proposal from Westerlo.
