Motherwell stated that top scorer Tawanda Maswanhise would not be sold during the current transfer window. Belgian club Anderlecht reportedly showed interest in the forward on deadline day, February 1, 2026. However, Motherwell maintained their position that the player was not available for transfer. The Scottish Premiership club reportedly deemed it too late to secure a suitable replacement for the Zimbabwean international. Maswanhise has been a key player for Motherwell this season, netting 13 goals and providing two assists in 21 league appearances. He is under contract with Motherwell until the summer of 2027, with an option for an additional year. His performances also attracted reported interest from other clubs, including Rangers, Celtic, and Blackburn Rovers. Motherwell's decision ensures Maswanhise will continue to lead their attack for the remainder of the season.
