Report: George Bello nearing Atlanta United departure before close of transfer window

It appears that George Bello’s long awaited transfer to a European club is imminent, with Fabrizio Romano tweeting early Saturday that Atlanta United has accepted an offer from Cercle Brugge for a permanent transfer of $3.75 million after incentives and bonuses.

Source confirms this report. Transfer fee mentioned below includes all bonuses, etc., per source. Bello hasn't agreed terms, hearing another club has come into picture.

Cercle Brugge are same owners as Monaco. Has a very young team, could be a good spot for Bello to develop. https://t.co/OhklbxutVd— Paul Tenorio (@PaulTenorio) January 29, 2022

But this situation is developing in real time, with at least one other club, Bundesliga side Arminia Bielefeld, jumping into the mix.
