Belgian club Anderlecht is keen on securing the services of English-born Ghanaian winger Jerusun Rak Sakyi, according to English media reports.
The 21-year-old Crystal Palace right winger has caught the attention of Anderlecht with his impressive skills on both wings and as an attacking midfielder.
Rak Sakyi, who trained at Chelsea and Crystal Palace, also spent a loan spell at Charlton two seasons ago. He first appeared on Crystal Palace’s first-team squad as an unused substitute against Chelsea on April 10, 2021, and signed his first professional contract with the club two days later. He made his debut as a substitute in a 3–0 defeat to Chelsea on August 14, 2021, in the Premier League.
Last season, despite missing several months due to a hamstring injury, he scored four goals and provided an assist in 11 games. Rak Sakyi, who has five caps for England U-20, is also attracting interest from Lyon, Leeds, Burnley, Sheffield United, and Southampton.
However, Anderlecht’s potential deal does not currently include a purchase option. Rak Sakyi’s contract with Crystal Palace runs until June 2027, and his market value is approximately two million euros.
