Anderlecht has submitted a bid for Samuel Ntanda, a 20-year-old Congolese youth international. Ntanda, who had previously spent part of his youth career at Anderlecht, is currently with Sampdoria, mainly playing for their youth team. He is under contract until the end of the next season, and Sampdoria is open to letting him go for a suitable offer. Anderlecht considers him a valuable addition to their main squad and RSCA Futures. Jesper Fredberg, the new sporting director at Sampdoria, will participate in any club-level negotiations. Ntanda, a versatile flank attacker, has other options besides Anderlecht, but the Belgian club has already made an initial offer. If the transfer is successful, it would represent Anderlecht's second re-acquisition of a former youth player, following the return of Ilay Camara.
