BELGIUM: MPOKU SHOULD EXTEND WITH STANDARD
Paul-José Mpoku, who has been having an outstanding season, is reportedly considering extending his contract with Standard Liège. Previously, in mid-December, the midfielder had declined an offer to extend his contract with the club. However, according to La Derniere Heure, Mpoku, who is currently under contract until June 2015, has now had a change of heart and is open to the idea of extending his stay.
As Mpoku enters the final year of his contract this summer, negotiations seemed to have hit a roadblock in December, with the player indicating his potential departure. However, Standard Liège management has since submitted a new offer to Mpoku, who has agreed to reconsider his decision.
This development comes as positive news for Standard Liège, who are leading the Jupiler Pro League. Mpoku’s exceptional form has attracted interest from clubs like Wolfsburg, making his potential contract extension even more crucial for the club’s future success.
