What's happening?

Why is this important for Club Brugge?
It's important for Club Brugge to see if the transfer of Ordonez will take place and what this means for the future of the club. The transfer of Ordonez would cost a higher amount than previously mentioned.
What comes next?

Ordonez has been with Club Brugge since August 2022, after coming through the ranks of Ecuadorian clubs Deportivo Azogues and Independiente del Valle. He has 20 caps for Ecuador, including three appearances at this summer's World Cup. Villa begins their Premier League season away to Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday.
