Anderlecht move for 19-yr-old Man City defender could be a good thing
Anderlecht are in talks with Manchester City to sign defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis on loan, according to reliable European football correspondent Kristof Terreur.

In his defence, he played for Blackburn who were far from the most gifted Championship team so he may shine in a better environment at Anderlecht. At best, he could have got the oc...
