Reliable reports are saying that Nathan De Cat is in talks with Hoffenheim after Anderlecht reached an initial agreement for the midfielder. The proposed move has moved a step closer, with personal terms currently being negotiated between club and player. Final confirmation is still pending but momentum is clearly building and there is optimism that a deal will be struck in the coming days. Hoffenheim are still pushing to finalise terms. However, Man Utd, Brighton and Leverkusen are still watching closely and may return with offers of their own. So far this season, Hoffenheim are steady at both ends (2.04 goals scored per game, 1.29 goals conceded per game). The role for Nathan De Cat would be to keep that balance while lifting performances across the pitch. There are currently no rumoured links for either Anderlecht or Hoffenheim.
