Royal Antwerp FC still has to deal with a few transfer matters in the coming days. The arrival of Eden Hazard was also on the table this weekend.
The concerns of Royal Antwerp FC are currently in defense. Toby Alderweireld is out for a while and Ritchie De Laet also stayed in the dressing room against Union SG during half time. Is he also struggling with an injury?
It is already clear to analyst Patrick Goots that there are still transfers to be made. “A left-footed defender must certainly be added, and preferably someone for the flank,” it sounds in Gazet van Antwerpen.
“You can still move with central pawns, but a flank defender requires a specific profile. I assume that Marc Overmars still has a few left backs in his book.”
And then the name of Eden Hazard also fell on the Tawny Owl. Apart from the financial, Goots sees other reasons why this can never go ahead.
“In my opinion, I never see that transfer happening, for the simple reason that Hazard does not fit into Van Bommel’s system. Muja didn’t play a good game against Union, but he ran his lungs out for ninety minutes. Hazard can no longer do that at the age of 32.”
