Danylo Sikan (24) strengthens RSC Anderlecht's attack. The Ukrainian striker makes the permanent move from Trabzonspor and has signed a contract until 2030 at the club.
Already at a young age, Danylo made the move from Karpaty Lviv to Ukrainian top team Shakhtar Donetsk. In 116 games for Shakhtar, he scored 31 goals and delivered nine assists. Danylo also made a good impression in the 2023-2024 Champions League campaign, in which he scored 4 goals in 5 games.
His performances in his homeland also earned him a status as an international. In his first match for the Ukrainian national team, he also managed to score immediately.
Halfway through last season, Danylo made the switch to Turkish side Trabzonspor. In 34 games, he delivered 7 goals and 3 assists.
Olivier Renard, Chief Technical:
"At the age of 24, Danylo Sikan is a player with already a lot of experience in the Ukrainian and Turkish leagues, in the Champions League and as an international. He has a good technique, likes to get involved in the build-up and also knows how to use the spaces well. Additionally, he can also hold the ball up front and has good heading skills as well. By signing Danylo, we’re adding a strong extra asset in attack to the team.”
