Coventry's striker, Norman Bassette, is on track to have his best goal-scoring season yet, netting three times in six games for Belgian side Westerlo. The 21-year-old has been considered a player with great potential since his loan move from Coventry in 2024, but his form at Westerlo has turned heads. Bassette scored the opening goal in Westerlo's 4-2 victory over Standard Liege on Saturday.
Prior to his loan to Westerlo, Bassette scored five goals for KV Mechelen while on loan from Caen. His previous stints at Coventry and Reims saw him score a combined total of 17 goals in 46 games. With a contract until 2028, Bassette has a buy option from Westerlo and a Premier League side, making him a key player to watch as he aims to match or surpass Nacho Ferri's impressive goal tally from last season.
