The website "Africa Foot" revealed that the management of the "Giallorossi" is closely following the development of the Moroccan player's performance, who has managed to impose himself as one of the most prominent elements of Genk thanks to the distinguished levels he has presented since joining the team. Roma's task will not be easy, as it faces competition from several European clubs, most notably Everton and Crystal Palace from the English Premier League, as well as PSV Eindhoven from the Netherlands, which puts El Wassidi among its priorities in anticipation of making an official offer in the summer market. On the other hand, Genk is clinging to its player and does not intend to give up on him except in exchange for a suitable financial offer, after setting a value of no less than 15 million euros to agree to sell him, which reflects his increasing importance within the team and the rise of his stock in the transfer market. According to the same source, the interested clubs have intensified their contacts in recent days to inquire about the player's situation, in preparation for taking official steps, amid expectations of an increase in his market value and the entry of other clubs into the competition if the decision is delayed.
