After a smooth victory against OH Leuven and a draw against Beerschot, Club Brugge won on Saturday with heavy 6-0 figures from KV Mechelen. Blue-black is the big top favorite to become champion again, but there is certainly competition.
AA Gent already invested heavily in the summer mercato. 6 million euros was spent on Charleroi left back Nurio Fortuna and an (expensive) midfielder and attacker must also be added. In addition, strongholds Roman Yaremchuk, Michaël Ngadeu and Elisha Owusu are not allowed to leave. Goudhaantje Jonathan David should yield 35 million euros.
Sports journalist Jacques Sys also sees the main competitor in AA Gent: “Club Brugge certainly starts as a top favorite in the competition, but KAA Gent is the main competitor. There is a new defense and it is now up to trainer Jess Thorup to show his craftsmanship.” he prescribed Sports / Football magazine.
