Club Brugge released Nicky Hayen this month. A justified decision? In The Latest News Director of Football Dévy Rigaux indicates that the moment has come.
“We have emphasized that Nicky has been extremely successful with us,” says Rigaux. “We are very grateful to him for that and think he is a very nice man. But it is top sport, don’t forget that. And then it is all about maximizing opportunities to become champion.”
The fans were angry after that decision. “But we had the best view of this internally. We therefore decided to make timely changes in order to maximize those opportunities. Whether it is the right decision will have to be seen at the end of the season. I think that Racing Genk has made a very good choice for their club. It is great that Nicky is back to work so quickly.”
Club has already made an excellent start under newcomer Ivan Leko. Leko immediately took 9 out of 9.
