Club Brugge blocks €35m bid for Tresoldi despite signing Cape Verdean WC hero Vozinha
Club Brugge has rejected a staggering €35 million bid for Nicolo Tresoldi, even as Cape Verdean WC hero Vozinha joins the Blauw-Zwart. The club currently sits second in the Jupiler Pro League with 38 points from 32 games, just one point behind Union St. Gilloise, and is shaping its squad ahead of the new season.
Who is Vozinha and why did he join Club Brugge?
Vozinha, the goalkeeper who made headlines at the 2026 World Cup with a string of penalty saves for Cape Verde, has signed for Club Brugge. The 31-year-old international arrives as back-up to first-choice Mathew Ryan, who is slowly regaining his place after injury. His arrival adds competition and experience to a side that conceded just 39 goals last season.
Why did Club Brugge reject the €35m bid for Tresoldi?
Nicolo Tresoldi remains at Club Brugge for now, despite a reported €35 million offer from an unnamed club. The Blauw-Zwart called the bid ‘disproportionate’ to the 22-year-old midfielder’s value. Tresoldi has been a regular in midfield, helping the side to a +26 goal difference (65 scored, 39 conceded) and five straight wins. With the new season looming, Brugge are in no rush to sell.
What’s next for Club Brugge?
With Vozinha in goal and Tresoldi’s future unclear, Club Brugge are set to push for the title. They sit second in the Jupiler Pro League with 38 points from 32 games and a +26 goal difference. Their next fixture is away to KVC Westerlo on 13 February 2027, a match that could move them closer to the top spot. The club remains focused on its ambitions, despite turning down high bids for its players.
