Westerlo made an unsuccessful attempt to sign Aleksander Bobek, a young goalkeeper from ŁKS, indicating their interest in young Polish goalkeepers. This approach was part of their broader strategy to find a promising young goalkeeper in Poland, as demonstrated by their prior attempt to acquire Sławomir Abramowicz, which was also rejected. Despite their efforts, Westerlo's pursuit of Bobek did not materialize into a successful transfer.
