Belgian Striker: FCK Signs First Winter Addition - Kaiserslautern boosts attack with Belgian striker Norman Bassette on loan
FC Kaiserslautern has strengthened its attack with the loan signing of Belgian striker Norman Bassette. The 21-year-old arrives from Coventry City and brings experience from leagues in Belgium, France, and England. Meanwhile, the club continues searching for defensive reinforcements before the season resumes.
Bassette joins Kaiserslautern after a loan spell at Stade de Reims in France. His career includes time in Belgium’s top flight and appearances for both youth and senior Belgian national teams. Sporting director Marcel Klos highlighted the young forward’s pace, aggression, and strong mentality as key assets for the squad.
The Red Devils will return to action on January 18 with a home match against Hannover 96. While the attack gains a new option, the club remains active in the transfer market. A centre-back is still on their wishlist, though no specific targets have been named in public reports.
Bassette’s arrival adds depth to Kaiserslautern’s forward line as they prepare for the second half of the season. The club’s focus now shifts to securing a defender before the transfer window closes. Their next test comes at home against Hannover in mid-January.
