Going out with Ritchie De Laet in Antwerp: “We were the only grub in a purple-white desert” (Antwerp)

Together with Radja Nainggolan, he is the only Antwerper in the core of Antwerp FC. The plow of his heart, given with the spoon. And the love is mutual. Antwerp also likes Ritchie (33), the red and white warrior who no longer needs a last name on the Bosuil. He realizes the importance of the city derby this weekend like no other. If only because he grew up within walking distance of the Kiel. “But I never played for them. Never. Only in the youth at KFCO Wilrijk, but that was still the original club, in blue and yellow.”
