Genk of Belgium have entered into transfer talks with Atletico Madrid over their Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu according to Spanish outlet Marca.
Both clubs are close to agreeing a fee of around €20 million, five less than what Genk demanded in the summer for the 27 year old but it is believed that the difference will be made up with several simple add ons.
Coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone sees Onuachu as one who will give his team a different dimension in attack as his style of play is different from that of the current strikers at the club, which is the duo of Luiz Suarez and Antoine Griezmann.
The 27-year-old attacker has so far scored 56 goals and 7 assists in 83 games for Genk making him one of the most prolific striker in Belgium in the last two seasons.
