Matazo on loan to Cercle Brugge?

YOUTH - TRANSFERS Het Nieuwsblad writes that Eliot Matazo, the 16-year-old midfielder who exchanged Anderlecht for Monaco, visited Cercle Brugge together with his father and his agent. This feeds the speculation that Matazo will go on loan to Cercle.


Cercle Brugge is a satellite club of Monaco and will play in our highest division again next season. They hire a lot of players from Monaco.

However, we would be surprised if Matazo could be go on loan to Cercle immediately. Already playing in the Belgian first division seems very early. And to play with the Cercle youth? It seems more likely to us that Monaco has submitted a project to Matazo in which a loan to Cercle is possible within a few years. Then he can gain experience before taking his place in the first team of Monaco.
