Yoni Buyens hints at permanent Charlton Athletic stay

Buyens hints at Charlton stay

Midfielder Yoni Buyens has suggested that he could join Charlton Athletic permanently this summer from Standard Liege.

The 27-year-old is on a season-long loan from Charlton's sister club Liege and on Saturday netted his seventh and eighth goals of the season in the Addicks' 3-2 victory over Reading.

After the game, Buyens hinted that he could make his stay in South London a permanent one.

"We will see after this season," Buyens told London 24. "I haven't thought about it at the moment and I haven't spoken to anybody about it.

"I just want to be somewhere I am happy and I play and at the moment I am happy and I am playing here so we will see.

"Nothing is sure in football. If the offer is good then maybe I will stay."

Victory on Saturday made it seven wins in nine games for Charlton, who are 11th in the Championship.
