This season Jonathan David is causing sensation in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League. The offensive midfielder in the service of KAA Gent is currently the top scorer in the league and has aroused desires with his strong performances across Europe. Borussia Dortmund and Bayer 04 Leverkusen reportedly signal interest from the Bundesliga.





David has been playing in the Belgian first division for around two years. Previously, the 20-year-old played for the Ottawa Internationals Soccer Club. The youngster has so far achieved rapid development at his first stop in Europe. In the current season, the attacker scores almost at will. David contributed 22 goals and ten assists in 37 competitive matches. In the league, the Canadian international tops the scorer list with 18 goals.





BVB & Bayer among the interested parties

In view of the performance statistics, it is hardly surprising that the two-footed offensive player has caught the attention of numerous clubs. According to the Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws , David has been observed by scouts from BVB, Bayer 04 Leverkusen, Ajax Amsterdam, Arsenal , Manchester United, and Inter Milan in recent weeks and months . According to reports, other clubs from the Bundesliga are interested in the 20-year-old.





"It's wonderful that we have a top scorer like David, but we want to keep him above all," sports director Michel Louwagie told the newspaper (via Goal ). "In any case, we do not let such a player go for 25 million," said the official.

Since David prematurely extended his contract in Ghent last September to 2023, the runner-up in the Jupiler Pro League has all the cards in hand. In view of the well-known interested parties, the international, who can also play as a hanging top or center forward, should no longer be able to hold in the summer.
