Sander Berge: Genk midfielder wants exit with Sheffield United keen to sign himGenk are believed to be prepared to accept £17m for Norway international Sander BergeNorway midfielder Sander Berge has told Genk he wishes to leave the club before Friday’s transfer deadline, with Sheffield United favourites to sign him. The two sides picked up talks again in recent days after the Blades failed to sign Berge in the summer and have reopened negotiations over a £17m deal. Negotiations between Genk and United on a potential £20m transfer are understood to be continuing, but with Friday's deadline looming it's thought a breakthrough is likely in the next 48 hours. Last season, Berge played a crucial role in Genk's championship-winning season, securing the club's fourth Belgian Pro League title. He has appeared more than 100 times for Genk since joining in 2017 - along with 20 caps for his country.
