According to transfer market expert Sacha Tavolieri, fresh talks are expected to take place in the coming days, with both sides aiming to finalize an agreement for the promising winger. The Belgian Pro League champions have identified Adedeji-Sternberg as a leading candidate to replace Christos Tzolis, who was sold to Arsenal last month for a Belgian Pro League record fee of 40 million euros.
