Aboubacar Conte, an 18-year-old offensive midfielder, is set to depart from Anderlecht. Previously part of the RSCA Futures squad, he made his professional debut in October against Jong Genk, although that remained his sole appearance. Conte is aiming to make a breakthrough at Lierse, who have the option to loan him for the remainder of the season with an option to purchase. This move represents Lierse's second acquisition of the winter, following the signing of Bo De Kerf from Ninove. Currently, Lierse occupies the seventh position in the Challenger Pro League, while the RSCA Futures are in a challenging situation at fourteenth, battling to avoid relegation.
