Radja Nainggolan told Het Laatste Nieuws that he is targeting Patro. Nainggolan said there is concrete interest from Patro and that this is more interesting both in the long term and financially. He described the offer from Patro as very interesting and called it a very interesting challenge. Patro Eisden wants to sign Nainggolan from Lokeren, but Lokeren prefers to keep the player, who is under contract until the end of the season.

According to Sacha Tavolieri, 37-year-old Belgian Radja Nainggolan has received concrete interest from Patro Eisden, a league rival of his current club, KSC Lokeren. Nainggolan is reportedly interested in moving to the team managed by his former national teammate, Stijn Stijnen. However, the president of KSC Lokeren currently wants to keep the player at the club. Talks are said to be ongoing. The central midfielder, who has 30 caps and 6 goals for Belgium, joined KSC Lokeren in January 2025 and his contract runs until June 2026. In the current league season, he has scored 5 goals and provided 2 assists in 13 appearances. His current market value is €250k, according to Transfermarkt.
