Ayub Masika’s contract extension with Racing Genk until 2019 shows the club’s confidence in his potential despite his modest goal record so far. At 22, the Kenyan winger still has plenty of time to develop and prove himself, especially since Genk is giving him regular chances in preseason matches like the one against Dnipro.
Coming through Anderlecht’s youth academy and having experience with Germinal Beerschot before Genk, Masika’s journey reflects a steady climb in Belgian football. Genk’s decision to lock him down for five more years suggests they see him as a valuable asset for their future plans.
