The week which has opened, with two friendly matches against Saint-Trond this Wednesday (1.30 p.m.) then the RWDM on Saturday (4.30 p.m.), could be decisive for some players, in anticipation of the internship in the Netherlands the week next. Ronny Deila has put things back on track and put everyone on the same starting line since his arrival. For players returning from loan, or not used last season, the moment is important.
Jackson Muleka: the Congolese striker was very successful with Kasimpasa (14 games, 12 goals) but the chances of seeing him again in the red jersey are slim. Tracked by Burnley, Galatasaray and Besiktas, he does not want to play again for Standard. He resumed training on Tuesday
But for how long ? Felipe Avenatti :
loaned to the Union then to Beerschot, the Uruguayan striker started the preparation from the right end. He seems diligent in training and he was able to take advantage of the second half at Manage to stand out. He wasn’t always happy with his choices, but his attitude was at least interesting. Will he show enough to claim a place in the group? Aleksandar Boljevic:
after a white season, without a minute played or ready, the Montenegrin midfielder is playing a lot during this preparation. Ronny Deila aligned him in the first team, at Manage. If he didn’t do everything on his right side, he at least had the merit of trying. William Already Finished:
with ten minutes in the Cup, in Mouscron, the midfielder never had a say last season. Will preparation allow her to show more? In Manage, he was in any case the author of a correct first period, in a supporting role, with Raskin, behind Emond. He also has an important card to play in this possible redistribution of roles. Eden Shamir:
the Israeli midfielder, on loan to Maccabi Tel Aviv, finished last season with 7 goals in 33 games (and 9 yellow cards). But since he returned to Liège, he hasn’t trained yet. Suffering from the back, he remained in care and could not plead his case with the staff. Aron Dönnum:
loaned to Valerenga last winter, the Norwegian attacking midfielder has regained some feeling, scoring two goals in ten games. With the season barely ending in Norway, he has been given a few extra days off and will join the Rouches after the camp on July 12. However, he is not sure he wants to stay on the banks of the Meuse. Mitchy Ntelo:
Hope, loaned to MVV Maastricht, negotiates with Beerschot (D1B).
Bastien, Amallah and Cimirot have also returned. Laifis, waiting for a happy event, will return on July 4 for the internship.
