Belgian professional clubs are going through a particularly difficult time financially. Some heads may be broken.
The Jupiler Pro League coaching carousel is also working at full speed this season. Standard chose to fire Carl Hoefkens on New Year’s Eve and eventually hired Ivan Leko as his replacement.
Johan Boskamp feels sorry for Hoefkens. “First of all I think it’s useless for Carl’s career. Starting the season twice at a top club and being sacked twice before the winter break doesn’t look good on your CV,” said Het Belang van Limburg.
It is highly questionable whether Leko has the golden formula. He has always done a great job for the teams he has coached, but you also depend on the quality of the group of players. And that’s not the only problem.
“If you read that Standard is full of debt, then I doubt the American owners will pump much money into the team. Unless they end up like KV Oostende,” warns the Dutchman.
