Suarez stays, but transfer Moisander is off

The transfer of Suarez to the Russian CSKA Moscow is officially off. Earlier, the player failed to pass the medical tests due to his light knee injury. Suarez left to Argentina for treatment.


The striker will therefore remain in Anderlecht, but will be unavailable until December. It is not yet clear what type of treatment will be necessary. There are two options. The most valid one is a small operation.

A transfer could have given Anderlecht the chances to reinforce their defence. CSKA would have paid 11 million euros to the Brussels club. Without this money, a transfer of Moisander (AZ Alkmaar) to Anderlecht is impossible. The only option is that the Mauves make it to the Champions League group phase and then try again to land the player using the prize money.
