Durosinmi close to breaking Genk’s transfer record
Rafiu Durosinmi is on the verge of becoming Genk’s most expensive signing after the Belgian club agreed a €10.5m deal with Pisa. The Nigerian striker struggled to make an impact at Pisa, scoring once in 12 appearances. Genk hopes he can rediscover the form that made him a top striker in the Czech Republic. The move could also help boost his Super Eagles ambitions.
