According to the latest news from the Belgian media "Super Football", the famous Belgian striker and Anderlecht star Bakari is close to joining a Chinese Super League club. The "demon star" who once penetrated Belgian football may continue his career in the Chinese Super League.
Bakari's contract currently belongs to Anderlecht, but he was loaned to Belgian league side Belchott last summer. However, during the loan period, Bakari was completely unable to get a chance to play, and his contract with Anderlecht was less than half a year left, so changing the environment in the winter transfer window became a very realistic choice.
In this case, an invitation from a Chinese Super League club was placed in front of Bakari. Belgian media said that the main problem affecting Bakari's transfer is that he hopes that his personal financial situation will not be damaged with the transfer. At Anderlecht, Bakari earns around €1.2 million a year, and he hopes to earn at least that amount after the transfer.
This is also within the scope of what Chinese Super League clubs can afford. After all, the top salary level in the Chinese Super League is 3 million euros before tax, which is much higher than Bakari's psychological price, which also leaves plenty of room for negotiation between the two sides.
Bakari was once a top talent in Belgian football, and although he is only 25 years old this year, he has been famous for a long time. The striker, who is less than 1.7 m tall, debuted at Eindhoven and has since moved on to Valencia, A Coruña and Anderlecht. At the age of 17, Bakari made his debut for the Belgian national team, when he was hailed as a new hope for Belgium's strikers.
However, the development of bakari, who became famous at a young age, is far less than expected, and it is regrettable that he is completely different from the Belgian stars of almost the same era, Such as Origi and Salmex. Of course, with the title of "Belgium international", for the Chinese Super League, Bakari is still a new signing worth looking forward to.
From the current situation, once Bakari finally confirms his visit to China, Shanghai Haigang will be one of the clubs he is most likely to join. Since hiring former league coach Lecco last year, SIPG has repeatedly inspected foreign aid candidates in the Belgian league, but in the end it has not been negotiated due to issues such as price and entry restrictions. This year, with the team's failure to win the championship, Arnautovic's departure and other issues, SIPG's foreign aid is also very likely to usher in a replacement, at least Lopez, Paulinho and other foreign aid there is still room for upgrade. This time, perhaps Bakari will be the new hope of the team's front.
