According to Sacha Tavolieri, Joseph Paintsil looks certain to stay at Genk after Leeds United’s bid was rejected recently.
On Monday 28 August, the Belgian journalist shared the likely outcome in the remaining few days of the window with MOT Leeds News exclusively.
Leeds were in early talks with the attacker for an £8.6 million deal, but were thought to be considering dropping their interest after the offer was rejected [Dharmesh Sheth].
Tavolieri told MOT Leeds News exclusively: “No, I believe he will now stay at KRC Genk.”
Remove it from the list.
This appears to be a late move that we can all cross off the list of possible incomings.
Leeds believed that Genk had shifted the goalposts by rejecting their offer, thus it is not surprising to see The 49ers Enterprises put its foot down and perhaps leave this one behind.
Paraag Marathe built his career in the NFL through harsh negotiating with the San Francisco 49ers, so if he doesn’t think this agreement is worth it, he’ll move on.
Leeds are far better run now than they were under Andrea Radrizzani and Victor Orta, a duo who may have pushed this trade through regardless of our financial situation.
