Ghana winger Christopher Bonsu Baah is close to sealing a high-profile transfer to Saudi Pro League side Al Qadsiah FC, in what could become one of Genk’s most lucrative outgoing deals in recent years, Joy Sports has learned.
The 20-year-old, who joined the Belgian outfit from Norwegian side Sarpsborg two years ago, has attracted serious interest from Al Qadsiah, with negotiations at an advanced stage.
While the move is not yet finalised, Joy Sports understands that Bonsu Baah is likely to feature in the Saudi top flight next season.
Though the exact fee remains undisclosed, Genk are expected to receive a significant sum—far exceeding the €5.2 million they paid for his services in 2023.
Bonsu Baah is under contract at Genk until the summer of 2028 but has become a key member of the squad over the past two seasons. He has made 90 appearances across all competitions, scoring five goals and providing seven assists for the Limburg-based club.
Sources suggest the forward may spend a season or two in Saudi Arabia before making a return to European football, with age still on his side and further development expected.

Earlier this month, Bonsu Baah told Joy Sports he was eager to help Genk qualify for the UEFA Champions League following an impressive second campaign in Belgium.
