Belgian Pro League side RSC Anderlecht are reportedly eyeing Nigerian winger Daniel Job as part of their efforts to strengthen their attacking options ahead of the new season.
The 19-year-old, who plays for Sarpsborg 08 in Norway’s Eliteserien, has drawn interest following a standout campaign in which he has scored five goals and provided three assists in 17 appearances from the left flank.
According to Norwegian outlet Nieuwsblad, Anderlecht view Job as a promising and attainable addition to their frontline, with the player currently valued at approximately €500,000.
The club is already on the verge of finalizing a deal for striker Adriano Bertaccini from STVV but remains active in the market in pursuit of additional offensive reinforcements.
Should a move materialize, Job would be joining one of Belgium’s most storied clubs, potentially boosting his development and increasing his visibility on the European stage.
