Genk would only let go of Cyriel Dessers if €4m is on the table.
The Belgian club informed Dutch side Feyenoord Rotterdam and English club Nottingham Forest that they can only secure the Nigerian on a permanent basis if they agree to pay the sum.
The 27-year-old has been imperious in front of goal and one of the best supersubs around. Since Dessers arrived at De Kuip, he has had a brilliant time in the Netherlands.
0-0 in the Rotterdam derby between Feyenoord and Sparta. Dessers rises from the bench to slam home a 92nd minute winner. Four days later, the Nigeria international repeated the trick away at Union Berlin in the UEFA Conference League.
Then, later that week, another stoppage-time decider, this time against AZ Alkmaar.
In total, Dessers has scored 11 goals since returning to the Eredivisie on loan from KRC Genk last summer. Five of them came after the 89th minute.
The former Heracles talisman also scored the winner at PEC Zwolle, an equaliser against Groningen and a last-gasp goal in November’s thrilling 2-2 draw with Slavia Prague.
Dessers may be in Genk’s plans for the future but they have informed Feyenoord and Forest that they would only budge if they receive offers from 4million euros for the 27-year-old.
