Anderlecht is looking to strengthen its attack this summer, but one of the most important files is becoming increasingly difficult. The Brussels-based club has been eyeing Tawfik Bentayeb for some time, but the interest in the Moroccan striker is growing outside of Belgium. According to foreign reports, FC Augsburg has also entered the fray. The German first-division club wants to speed up the negotiations, which would put Anderlecht at risk of missing out. That would be a disappointment for sportive director Antoine Sibierski, who is still working on building the team. Bentayeb made his breakthrough last season, impressing with his nose for goals and consistent performances. He is now one of the most sought-after strikers in his profile, with a market value of around eight million euros. For Anderlecht, finding a new number nine is a top priority. The club wants to add more scoring power to the team and sees Bentayeb as a player who can make an immediate impact. His statistics speak for themselves: 28 goals in 57 official matches. Anderlecht is currently fourth in the Jupiler Pro League, with 25 points from 32 matches. The club has a +4 goal difference and is 14 points behind the leaders of Union St. Gilloise. Anderlecht will play against KV Mechelen next week, who are sixth in the league.
