Belgian outfit Genk are ready to tie up a co-operation deal with Liverpool.

Genk officials are set to hold talks with their Reds counterparts this week, to discuss terms on the proposed arrangement.

Director general Dirk Degraen and coach Frank Vercautern are set to travel to Merseyside in the coming days.

"Now we are going to look on which way we can co-operate in the short term," Degraen told Het Belang van Limburg.

Solution
"Liverpool has a very big squad and many players didn't get many minutes.

"Genk can offer a solution for that, if we are offered the players that can make our squad better.

"Liverpool wants to sign young talented players from Africa and South America. But because of the British law it isn't possible. We can get the players to Belgium and let them develop. It would be a win-win situation for both clubs.

"We still have to talk about how to work the co-operation. At the moment we don't even know which players we can get."
 
Hahaha. Imagine if Gonk from Genk was a bit of a Geek and looked like a Gecko.

Don't we already have a team in Hungary for this?

I guess this is a slightly higher level though

MTK or ATK... something like that

Think it's MTK Hungary or something rather unimaginative
 
MTK George - also good because if FM 09 is right, players who play in Belgium for 1-2 years get Belgian citizenship, which means we can sign promising 16-18 year old Africans/South Americans and get EU citizenship.

Another pro from this is that Belgium is producing some real good talent lately ... so maybe we can 'latch' onto the next Enzo Scifo (sp?) or something.

I thought we'd already bought the whole lot?
 
We signed a deal with them till 2014, but that was initiated by Benitez and Macia. Not sure how its panning out to be under the new ownership and management but they have won the Belgium title and their ever present 19yr keeper Thibault Courtois was linked with Chelsea today.

Adorjan. Kind of shows why I was saying he never seems to get the credit he deserves for his work in the U-18s. 😀
 
TBF i didn't know much about our youth team then. I actually quite like adorjan now. Clever player

Oops, I just realized that I was replying to a post from back in January. Doh.
