Will the wet dream of the Anderlecht supporters come true? Two years after a return fell through just in the nick of time, Aleksandar Mitrovic may return.
At the end of January 2018, Mitrovic was literally in Brussels, just before the deadline of the winter mercato from Newcastle, to sign for Anderlecht again. But the transfer ultimately fell through because the Purple & White Lukasz Teodorczyk could not sell to Udinese. As a result they had no money to attract him.
Anderlecht does not have money in surplus either, but there may be an opportunity to get creative. By working with a rental agreement plus purchase option, for example. His current club Fulham may be interested in that. Coach Scott Parker uses Mitrovic little and would not be reluctant to leave the attacker.

More importantly, according to English sources, the Serbian attacker also wants to leave. More specifically, back to Belgium, where he has excellent memories of Anderlecht. He could relaunch his career there and also help the Purple & White get out of the doldrums. Mitrovic, who caused a furore in Brussels between 2013 and 2015, is still only 26.
