Cercle Brugge Sporting Director Rembert Vromant has expressed his delight at securing the permanent signing of Ghanaian midfielder Lawrence Agyekum, emphasizing the player’s versatility and technical ability.
The 21-year-old joined the Belgian Pro League side from RB Salzburg after a successful loan spell, with the club exercising their purchase option to keep him until 2029.
Vromant highlighted Agyekum’s fit within the team’s style of play, saying, “We are pleased to have exercised the option in Lawrence’s contract.
“He is a versatile midfielder with technical qualities that fit well into our playing style. We have great faith in his further development and look forward to the coming seasons together.”
Agyekum made a strong impression during his loan spell, featuring in 44 matches, scoring twice and providing two assists.
His performances also earned him a senior debut for the Ghana national team in March, further boosting his profile.
The former WAFA SC product, who was linked with moves to French sides Strasbourg and FC Nantes, opted to remain in Belgium, where he has firmly established himself as a key figure in the Cercle Brugge midfield.
