Keisuke Goto Transfer from Júbilo Iwata to Anderlecht
Anderlecht is reportedly considering activating the purchase option of one million euros included in Goto's loan contract. Negotiations with his club, Jubilo Iwata, are said to be underway, with both parties seemingly open to extending the collaboration. A decision is expected to be made within a few weeks. Goto, who is currently on loan at RSCA Futures, has his loan period ending in December. Despite facing some criticism, he has demonstrated his capabilities by becoming the top scorer in the Challenger Pro League with five goals in nine matches. Anderlecht is believed to have faith in his potential and is eager to keep him at the club.
Anderlecht aims to permanently sign Keisuke Goto from Iwata after his impressive performance with RSCA Futures, scoring 11 goals in 22 appearances. Initially on loan, Goto's transfer includes a purchase option worth around two million euros. However, Anderlecht's CEO Sports, Jesper Fredberg, is hesitant to pay the full amount. Negotiations continue, possibly involving Goto's personal terms. If no deal is reached, he will return to Japan after the new year. Youth coach Jelle Coen praises Goto's skills and contributions.
