Gent coach Vanhaezebrouck Reveals Transfer Value of Gift Orban

KAA Gent coach, Hein Vanhaezebrouck joked interested club will have to pay as much as €50m to sign Gift Orban.

Orban is now the rave of the moment in Belgium, two months after arriving from Norwegian second division club, Stabaek for just €3 million.

He has 8 goals in 9 games for the Buffalos, including four in last game against Zulte Waregem.

“Forty million (Euros)! Although it may also be €50 million,” he said with a laugh in a post-match interview.

Vanhaezebrouck also described the striker’s performance against Zulte Waregem as phenomenon.

“Gift Orban is a phenomenon, but we hardly saw him in the first half. He was not involved in those two goals (by Gent) either.

“But he knows where the goal is and scoring is for him easy, he can do it with left and right.” He said.
