Westerlo has inquired about Hugo Siquet from Club Brugge as a potential replacement for Bryan Reynolds, who is being pursued by Sparta Prague. Despite Siquet's limited playing time due to the rise of Joaquin Seys, Club Brugge has already stated that Hugo Siquet is not allowed to leave. Westerlo also showed interest in Kyriani Sabbe, another young back at Club Brugge, but while there is some openness to a transfer due to Sabbe's contract situation, Siquet's exit has been firmly ruled out.
