But he is yet to make his debut for the club and may, in fact, never play for them after a huge administrative error. ‘Servette did not send us anything at all,’ David Barras, a spokesperson for the Swiss Football League, confirmed to the newspaper. Alongside Rekik, Takuma Nishimura, Bassirou Ndiaye and Dylan Bronn all arrived in the winter window but were not correctly registered. But as it stands, the three others – Rekik, Nishimura and Ndiaye – are all blocked from playing for Servette. However, Arsenal’s Rekik would not be the first in line to be registered, with Nishimura – on loan from Yokohama F. Marinos – the player Servette have prioritised.
