'There is no concrete interest' - Rumoured Aston Villa target Onuachu on his future at Genk 

Paul Onuachu has played down speculation linking him with a departure from Racing Genk in the January transfer window, saying he's happy at the Belgian Pro League table toppers. 

Sensational reports in the media had suggested that the FC Ebedei product was on the wishlist of Unai Emery's Aston Villa, but the striker is on the same page as Racing Genk Technical Director Dimitri de Conde after revealing that no club has shown concrete interest in his services. 

Since Onuachu's arrival in Belgium in the summer of 2019, he has won the hearts of the Racing Genk faithful and beyond with his goalscoring displays. 

In 128 official matches as a Racing Genk player, Onuachu has tallied 82 goals and registered ten assists, however, his dream move to the Premier League has yet to materialize. 

Commenting on his future, Onuachu told Het Belang van Limburg, via bold.dk : "Who knows? Anything can happen in football. But I'm still really happy at KRC Genk, and I don't necessarily want to move on. 

"You have to be happy with what you have, and I don't think about what I don't have. 

"There is no concrete interest in the future. We're going to talk and then we'll see what happens. 

"There was a lot of talk this summer, but nothing concrete was on the table. Was it difficult that I didn't get my change? Yes it was. 

"I have done more than other players who have been changed, and it has not happened to me yet. I believe in God's timing."

The 28-year-old Onuachu will enter the last one year of his contract with Racing Genk at the end of the 2022-2023 season.
