KRC Genk have turned down a €10 million offer from Feyenoord for South Korean striker Oh Hyeon-gyu, insisting the 24-year-old is not for sale this summer.

According to reports in Belgium, the Rotterdam club identified Oh as a prime candidate to lead their line next season and made formal enquiries into his availability. However, Genk responded firmly with a refusal, making clear that the forward remains untouchable.

Despite Feyenoord’s willingness to put forward a substantial offer, Genk see Oh as their first-choice striker going into the new campaign. The Belgian side expect current top scorer Tolu Arokodare to depart this summer, with Premier League clubs and Saudi Pro League sides showing strong interest in the Nigerian, and are planning to build around Oh in his absence.

The former Celtic man joined Genk last year and spent much of his debut season as an impact substitute. Nevertheless, he made a notable impression, scoring 12 goals in all competitions, and has now positioned himself as a central figure in the club’s plans.

Genk’s resolve to keep Oh comes as other key players are also attracting serious interest. Earlier today, it emerged that Christopher Bonsu Baah is closing in on a move to Saudi Arabia, further highlighting the demand for talent at the Limburg-based club.

While the transfer window is heating up across Europe, Genk appear determined to resist major departures unless absolutely necessary. And for now, Oh Hyeon-gyu is going nowhere.
