Dusseldorf hold meeting over Lukebakio

According to a recent report from Bild, Fortuna Dusseldorf have held a meeting with Watford in order to try and secure a permanent deal for Dodi Lukebakio. The 21 year old has been on loan with the German club since last year, and has enjoyed a successful spell thus far. As a result Dusseldorf are very interested in trying to make the deal permanent, although they aren’t the only club that are interested.

Borussia Dortmund and Borussia Monchengladbach have also made it known that they want to take the winger off the hands of Dusseldorf, which could lead to something of a bidding war.

Watford are currently riding high in the Premier League, but it’ll be interesting to see whether or not they try and keep hold of him in the wake of all this interest.

Lukebakio has been a member of the Belgium U21s since back in 2017, but he has yet to break his way into the first team.
