RSC Anderlecht, one of the top football clubs in Belgium, has made a significant move by appointing a new head coach. David Hubert, described as young and modern, has been chosen to lead the team, embodying the DNA of the club. This decision comes after the club sacked their previous coach, Brian Riemer, last month.
In other news, Anderlecht had considered hiring Ryan Mason, the assistant coach at Tottenham Hotspur, but ultimately decided against it due to reservations about his lack of experience in Belgian football. Mason had held talks with Anderlecht but will remain at Tottenham, as confirmed by Tottenham’s head coach, Ange Postecoglou.
Anderlecht is gearing up for several important matches. Their next game is against K. Beerschot V.A. on October 18, 2024, in the Belgian Pro League. The team is coming off a strong performance, having won their last match against Standard Liège with a score of 3-0.
In addition to their domestic league, Anderlecht is also participating in the UEFA Europa League. They recently secured a 2-1 win against Ferencvárosi TC and are set to face other tough opponents including Porto, Ludogorets, and Hoffenheim in the competition.
The club has also taken steps to address disciplinary issues, with eight individuals identified for damaging stadium infrastructure and throwing projectiles during a match against Real Sociedad. As a result, RSCA fans will be banned from three European away games.
