Posted a while back on the "players who might improve us" thread about Charles De Ketelaere. Another 2 goals and 3 assists tonight for Atalanta. Watched him a good few times now and there's a ridiculously good player in there. Contracted to Atalanta until June 2027.

He'd be a great addition, imo.

He seems to have found his feet at Atalanta after a very difficult spell at Milan. He's 23 now, so will be coming into his best years. He's one we should be closely monitoring in the next six months. As his international teammate, I'd be interested to know what De Bruyne thinks about him as a player.

It's not a "yes" for me yet, but it's a "keep an eye on him" for sure.
 
It'll be interesting hearing some of the commentators betting their heads around that name, one commentator on CBS nearly gave himself an aneurism trying to pronounce Debruyne.

I seem to remember seeing links with him before he moved to Milan, but then there are so many of them that turn out to be non runners.

I agree he is a player we should keep an eye on definitely improved.

Maybe this thread should be added to ‘players who can improve us.’ Not sure warrants his own thread as no current links.

Since he was at Brugge we been keeping an "eye" on this player for about 5 years now???
We still have not done anything about it.
We will still not do anything about it, perhaps until his asking price becomes £80M-£90M or until he gets to the last year of his contract.

I think if we wanted to pull the trigger in the next couple of windows we would be quoted at least €60m. If we can’t get Wirtz he may become a player of interest. He is different to Wirtz but still a no 10.

I like Charles; I think he’s a very good player. However, if he ends up being the main replacement for KDB, especially if we don’t secure Wirtz, rather than being utilized as a squad player, it would be extremely disappointing. Lately our quality seems to be deteriorating season after season because we’re not replacing departing players with top-tier talent. And that’s precisely why we find ourselves in this frustrating position right now.
