Norman Bassette, a Coventry loanee, is on track for an impressive goalscoring season with three goals in six games for Belgian side Westerlo. The 21-year-old striker, who joined Westerlo from Coventry in a loan deal, has already proven his worth in Belgian football. Bassette has been considered a player with great potential since his loan move from Caen to Coventry in 2024, but his performance at Westerlo has been a significant improvement.
Prior to joining Coventry, he had scored five goals for KV Mechelen while on loan from Caen. Since then, he has played for Reims and Kaiserslautern, also scoring goals in those spells. With Westerlo's purchase option for the striker included in the loan deal, Bassette now has the opportunity to showcase his abilities and potentially match the impressive 11 goals he scored for Westerlo last season under Nacho Ferri.
