Göztepe proposed a one-year loan deal to Standard de Liège for Marlon Fossey, including a purchase option of 4 million euros. However, Standard declined the proposal, expressing satisfaction with Fossey's performance and a desire to extend his contract. Fossey, aged 26, joined Standard from Fulham in the summer of 2022, and has established himself as a dependable right-back. He has also earned two caps for the United States national team. His market value is currently estimated at 5 million euros, marking a career high according to Transfermarkt. Standard is keen to avoid Fossey entering the final year of his contract and prefers to engage in contract extension talks after the transfer window, with the aim of potentially selling him for a higher price in the future.
