Confirming the signing of mercurial midfielder, the sporting director Peter Verbeke of Anderlecht said;

“Despite a difficult integration due to Covid and an injury, Majeed has shown in his best moments what he can teach us. He has an excellent vista and passing, coupled with speed and infiltration ability, interesting qualities to give our midfield a little extra bring the following seasons,” said sporting director Peter Verbeke.
