He is a young talent that Belgian football has had the joy of discovering for two seasons now. On the Genk side, young Bilal El Khannouss has quickly become one of the best players in the Jupiler Pro League. At the age of 19, he settled permanently in Wouter Vrancken's eleven and also won his place in Walid Regragui's group with Morocco. A selection that he experienced for the first time during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar despite calls from Belgium and Roberto Martinez. Since then, the statistics speak for him since he has already played 42 matches this season (3 goals, 9 assists).
And his profile has necessarily appealed to several European teams for many months. Genk knows that the native of Strombeek-Bever is spending his last months at the club. According to our information, and as revealed by Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Bilal El Khannouss is clearly getting closer to RB Leipzig who have been following him for several months. The Red Bull galaxy club will make an offer to Genk. Discussions therefore already exist between the two clubs as well as with the player's entourage. El Khannouss also wants to join Leipzig and the Bundesliga, a championship he believes is perfect for his style of play and his progression. The stars seem to be aligned to see the young Moroccan international continue his career in Germany.
