Kwon Hyeok-kyu is ready to leave Nantes just months after his arrival from Celtic.
The former midfielder of the Parkhead club seems set for a new stint at Westerlo.
If the move materialises, he will be under the command of former Rangers assistant Issame Charai.
Kwon was a purchase from Busan IPark in 2023 but failed to make a competitive debut for Celtic.
A loan spell at St Mirren saw him impress, but his stint at Hibs was less successful.
Nantes took him in last summer.
This season, the 24-year-old has played 12 times in the top French league.
However, he hasn't been part of the last four matches and hasn't even been in the squad for the last three games.
Sacha Tavolieri, a journalist from Belgium, now reports that the player is on the cusp of a transfer to Westerlo.

It's believed he will arrive in Belgium this evening and could finalise his transfer in under 24 hours.
Westerlo's manager, Charai, took charge of the Belgian team in June last year.
In another development, Celtic is in the midst of discussions with Italy's Frosinone concerning a transfer for Fares Ghedjemis.
Celtic are also actively pursuing a deal for Damir Redzic, Hungarian international attacker, who is currently playing for Slovak side DAC Dunajská Streda.
