With a statement on the official website, Belgian Pro League side KRC Genk has announced the signing of Super Eagles forward Rafiu Durosinmi from Italian club Pisa SC. The Nigerian centre forward has signed a four-year contract with Genk that will keep him at the Cegeka Arena until the end of June 2030. Durosinmi joins the Belgian club after leaving Pisa SC, having previously impressed during his time with Czech side FC Viktoria Plzeň, where he established himself as a prolific attacker in both domestic competitions and on the European stage. During his spell at Viktoria Plzeň, the 23-year-old striker featured in 86 matches, scoring 35 goals and providing 10 assists. His performances helped him attract attention from clubs across Europe before moving to Italy. The Super Eagles forward began his professional career in the Czech Republic, where he developed his reputation as a powerful and clinical striker. His ability to lead the line, combined with his finishing and physical presence, made him a key figure for his previous clubs. Genk, known for developing talented players and providing a pathway for young footballers to progress, will hope Durosinmi can continue his impressive goalscoring form in Belgium. The arrival of the former Karvina player strengthens Genk’s attacking options as the club prepares for the new season, with Durosinmi now set to begin a new chapter of his European career at the Cegeka Arena.
