Sylla (19) came over from the Ivorian SO Armée a year ago and started his blue-black adventure at Club NXT.
In the last match of last season, the central defender already had a taste of his first minutes in the A-team, after which he became a permanent member of Carl Hoefkens' squad in June. Meanwhile, Sylla already managed to cash in on three starting places in the Jupiler Pro League and now he is being rewarded with a contract extension until 2026.
