Dutch youth international Sandler, who joined City from PEC Zwolle last year, was in Belgium on Monday to complete the final parts of the deal.

I think Kompany will use him as a CDM at Anderlecht, as we already have 7 CBs

I think this should be the last move for Sandler. If he proves himself as a good CB, then he should stay or he should leave

Sign with a big EPL team for the money, get loaned out for the contract, one year at a time.

Surely at 22 you gotta settle somewhere and not just get loaned out all the time

Wow he's going to kill it, Dutch league is better and he already impressed there. Now he's going to a strong Belgian side to play alongside Kompany. I'm not sure if he should still be playing in the Belgian league at his age but starting loads of games next to Kompany should be good for him.
