YOUTH – 1B In addition to Nga Kana, Vroninks and Engwanda, a lot is also expected from the 4 players below in 2026.

Jayden Onia Seke is a 16-year-old dribbling left wing attacker who is strong in one-on-one situations. Suffered an injury in mid-October with the national U17s, but should be back on his feet soon. He was allowed to participate in an internship in the summer, but the club wants him to have more matches with the Futures before he is definitively included in the first team. Within the club, some see him as a profile like Camara: able to cover the entire flank and contribute both offensively and defensively.

Alexander de Ridder is one of the revelations of the season at the Futures. This elegant central midfielder is a permanent fixture at the Futures, where as a 17-year-old he is one of the leaders. His vista and his powerful shot can be mentioned as special assets. At the moment, the midfield of the first team is still well equipped.

Another revelation at the Futures is Amine Mahroug. This 17-year-old left back was never seen as a great talent, but managed to work his way up to the undisputed title in the left back position. He is technically strong and brings a lot of intensity and running ability to the team. He still has to take steps defensively, but the club fully believes in his potential.

After a serious knee injury prevented him from playing football from March to November, a lot is expected of the 18-year-old Frenchman in 2026 Enzo Sternalacquired from Olympique Marseille last winter. The attacking midfielder with fabulous technique has already gained in volume since his transfer, but must first and foremost regain rhythm with the Futures, before possibly being included in the first team in the summer.
