According to information reported by L’Équipe, Edan Diop, brother of Sofiane Diop, should be loaned to the Cercle Bruges. This player, more focused on the attack than Valy Konaté, was under contract with the Red & White until June 2028. The loan aims to enable it to gain experience in the Belgian satellite club, which is still at the highest level for at least one additional season.

The midfielder took part in pre-season activities, including the first friendly match and internship in England, although he was not selected for the match against Coventry City. This decision is part of the team’s plan to prepare for the upcoming season and integrate young talent into the professional circuit.

It is important to note that there are no purchase agreements between the two clubs for this loan period. Pope Cabral, another midfielder, reportedly occupied a digital place in the group at St. Georges Park, suggesting an internal competition for positions within the team. This lending strategy allows players to develop while maintaining flexibility in team composition.
