The Westerlo Courier
Market24 Aug 2026
SV Elversberg come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Westerlo did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Daniël Singh puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Westerlo, and it is not being withdrawn.
Transfer targets24 Aug 2026
An offer of $880.0K for Lovro Golič
Westerlo have gone to KV Mechelen with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.
Boardroom24 Aug 2026
Westerlo go back to the board over Leon Lalić
The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $85.3K — a club that wants Leon Lalić enough to be asked twice.
Match22 Aug 2026
No end in sight to Westerlo's wait for a win
4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Westerlo has to find a result from somewhere.
Transfer targets24 Aug 2026
No deal for Saïdou Touré at that price
Westerlo offered $860.0K; Racing Genk said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.
Transfer targets24 Aug 2026
Westerlo bid $77.0K for Leon Lalić
The offer went to Lommel this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Eyes on Amando Lapage again
The phone has started ringing about Amando Lapage again, and this time the name on the line is RFC Liege. Westerlo are listening politely and promising nothing.
Squad24 Aug 2026
A row about effort at Westerlo
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Isa Sakamoto was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
In brief
- Squad Seiji Kimura in a row with a teammate
- Player ratings David Amegnaglo was unplayable
