Standard is working on bringing Hungarian defender Attila Szalai to their team. The transfer could be completed very soon, with the aim to finalize the deal by Monday. Szalai is currently on the sidelines at Hoffenheim. Standard intends to loan him for the rest of the season, but they will only be able to cover a portion of his salary due to his high earnings in Germany.

Attila Szalai is about to be loaned to Standard Liège. This decision comes as TSG Hoffenheim, dealing with an overabundance of central defenders, opts to loan out players to balance their squad.
