Genk Give FC Midtjylland One-Week Deadline To Sell Super Eagles Striker

Published: August 14, 2019

Belgian First Division A club Racing Genk have demanded that FC Midtjylland should sell their striker Paul Onuachu within a week.

Genk have confirmed that they have made a bid for the Nigeria international but the Danish Superliga side are playing hardball, having previously rejected a bid.

The Belgian champions are willing to acquire Onuachu for six million euros but the Danes have put a twelve million euros price tag on the striker's head.

''There is no ultimatum. But it goes without saying that we now want clarity quickly,'' says Dimitri De Condé, sports director at KRC Genk, to Het Belang van Limburg.

''If the deal does not come through, then we have to explore other routes. We want to know where we stand within a week."

Onuachu, who has not played for FC Midtjylland this season, was part of the Super Eagles squad to the 2019 AFCON.
