What he said in detail to the “Antwerp Gazette”

“In Antwerp they treated me like a parasite, like I was a foreigner… They took Offermars as sporting director to try to bring me back to the main team, but nobody had the courage to go against the president. I did my best in the second team, I supported the younger ones… I’ve been to many clubs and I’ve never been treated like this, I couldn’t even get through the main door to the training centre.

My daughters were the main reason I came back to Belgium. Otherwise I could only be with them on holidays and I wanted to stay in Antwerp. Even if I was losing a lot of money, as it happened, but that wasn’t a problem. But the president even forced me to leave the country and I will never forgive him for that. At SPAL I play for much less money but with pleasure and enjoyment”‘
