Westerlo is embroiled in a transfer drama with Edomwonyi Bright, who signed a contract with Genk. The 18-year-old Nigerian signed a three-year contract with Genk in July, but Westerlo claims he has a contract with their club.

What happened?

Edomwonyi Bright is deeply disappointed after his failed transfer. He signed a three-year contract with Genk in July, but Westerlo terminated his contract after they had signed an agreement with an academy in Nigeria.

Why is this important for Westerlo?

Westerlo wants Bright to return to training soon. They claim that he is a player of their club and that he signed a contract with them through the Westerlo Football Academy in Nigeria.

What comes next?

Bright wants nothing to do with Westerlo. He says that he never signed a contract with them and that he only signed with Genk. His lawyer will contact Westerlo to resolve the situation.
