Anderlecht eyes French second‑division top scorer Tawfik Bentayeb after World Cup miss to boost Brussels side’s front line in upcoming season

Tawfik Bentayeb, the 24‑year‑old Moroccan striker who finished last season as the French second‑division’s top scorer, is set to join RSC Anderlecht. The Brussels club has reached an agreement with Troyes to secure his services ahead of the new campaign.

Bentayeb’s prolific record in France attracted interest from several clubs, but Anderlecht moved quickly to finalize the deal.

He narrowly missed selection for Morocco’s World Cup squad, leaving him eager to prove his worth at club level.

The transfer, pending medical clearance, would add a proven goal‑getter to the Belgian side as they look to strengthen their attack.
