With Inter in particular pulling the sleeves of Tajon Buchanan (24) once again, the Canadian’s departure from Club Brugge in January is a likely possibility. After mutual consultation with the Club, Buchanan was no longer in selection against RWDM.
Last spring we wrote that Inter were clearly monitoring TJ Buchanan. According to our information, there has already been an agreement for around 15 million euros at club level. However, the transfer did not happen last summer. Six months later, the Italian club has once again put the Canadian on the radar – according to Italian media, discussions with his entourage are well underway. This also applies to some other European clubs. Remarkably, there was no starting place for Buchanan last weekend against AA Gent, who was replaced on the right by Maxime De Cuyper. The Canadian is no longer in the squad against RWDM after mutual consultation with the club.
“I don’t know what’s going on around TJ,” coach Ronnie Deila said Thursday afternoon. “Beyond my ability. He’s still here and that’s the most important thing now. He’s one of us. Max performed well on the right. His intelligence and technique allow him to play in almost any position. It makes him a special player. Björn (Meijer, ed.) uses his feet “More left-handed. It just gives us more options. There is tough competition on the right. Odoi is also in good form and after the break we hope Saab will be there again.”
Waiting to see what will happen with Buchanan… and what the club’s winter Mercato will look like: “It is impossible to make any statements about that now,” Deila said. “We never talked about a new striker. It is true that we look back centrally to see what is needed. But then it is important to find players who perform better in the short term than the players we have. Or find talented players to achieve long-term returns. It is a process The club considers it “normal”.
Not only is the club moving to the RWDM without Buchanan, but also without Ordonez, who will no longer play this year due to a hamstring injury. Kasper Nielsen highly doubtful: “He will be fit on Tuesday against Union,” Deila confirmed.
