Jan Boskamp thinks that Mark van Bommel is a suitable candidate to work at RSC Anderlecht. Purple-White Besnik Hasi recently kicked out due to disappointing results.
Since mid-2024, Anderlecht has had four different trainers for the group. It has been unsettled for some time at one of the largest clubs in Belgium, where the name of Maarten Martens, who was fired from AZ, has been mentioned. “In the beginning he did well at AZ and he did excellent work as an assistant to Pascal Jansen and with the youth of Club Brugge, but as head coach he then had a problem with the players at AZ. I don’t know whether Maarten Martens has the personality to put things in order within Anderlecht,” Boskamp said. The Newspaper.

Boskamp emphasizes that a trainer must be appointed who can change things to his will in a very short time. “I’m not saying that Anderlecht needs a dictator, but I do need a coach with character. A coach who places himself above everything and everyone and finally tells it like it is. Someone who makes it clear to the board that it should not interfere with the team and should stay out of the dressing room. A type like Mark van Bommel, who commands respect at all levels of the club through his personality and his great career. From players to management.”
Van Bommel already worked in Belgium between 2022 and 2024. With Royal Antwerp FC he became national champion and won the cup and the super cup.
