The infirmary is gradually emptying and the posts in Anderlecht are becoming more and more expensive. It is especially in midfield that places are fought over, to the point that certain players risk being completely sidelined.
With the return of Yari Verschaeren and Majeed Ashimeru, Brussels are suddenly bathed in midfield opulence, but according to Brian Riemer, this is not a problem, quite the contrary. “I am happy to have so many options at my disposal,” the coach said in Le Soir.R
A quartet towards the exit?
But this increased competition, which should see Mario Stroeykens and Théo Leoni join the bench, also presents a disadvantage. “I recognize that our selection is a little too broad today. In January we will have to find solutions,” Riemer said.
We think above all of Amadou Diawara and Kristian Arnstad, whom he invariably leaves on the sidelines even in the absence of Thorgan Hazard and Francis Amuzu. But summer recruits Alexis Flips and Justin Lonwijk also risk being used less and less.
The latter, in particular, has completely disappeared from the picture: since the end of September, the 23-year-old Dutchman has no longer been part of the match squad at all. Partly due to physical problems, but Lonwijk just doesn’t seem to fit into Riemer’s plans anymore.
Especially since, according to Le Soir, he is currently training with the RSCA Futures. Who knows, maybe we’ll see him in action in the Challenger Pro League soon. Even if it’s a safe bet that Jesper Fredberg will get rid of him quickly.
