Parma has exercised the purchase option of Elias Cobbaut (24 years old). The Italian Serie B club have decided to keep the Belgian defender by paying the amount fixed by Anderlecht in their loan contract. The decision was confirmed by Parmesan club president Kyle Krause on Sunday. “Elias will be an important member of our team next season,” he said on Twitter.
Anderlecht will recover a nice sum in the operation: regarding three million euros. Slightly less than Sporting paid Mechelen in the summer of 2018.
