Ivan Leko most likely arrived in Liège with, in mind, some ideas to strengthen his core. A midfielder would be followed.
This week, we introduced you to some old acquaintances of Ivan Leko who might be among the opportunities to seize this winter. Names for the most part very well known (read here) and, of course, totally fictitious, no rumor sending them to Sclessin this winter until proven otherwise. But Leko would indeed have a name in mind.
According to Sudpressethe Croatian would have suggested to his management to take an interest in Lindon Selahi (24 years old), midfielder from Rijeka. Leko had spotted the player from… Namur when he was coach of Hajduk Split. Albanian international (4 caps), Selahi knows Standard well, since he was trained there in youth teams. The former Belgian U16 international moved back and forth several times between the Standard Academy and Neerpede, before signing for Twente in 2019.
The last hour, responding to this rumor, affirms that there would be “nothing concrete” at the moment and that Lindon Selahi is only one name followed among others. The market value of Namurois, 2.5 million euros, makes the transaction difficult to imagine for Standard, which will not have a very high budget this winter. But Selahi is at the end of his contract next June; a potential negotiating lever for Fergal Harkin?
