You could almost forget that Rik Verheye is also a gifted actor, because he is now also very often in the news as chairman of Sporting Hasselt. He is completely bitten by it.
“If I lived nearby, I would be here every day. I really mean that. I would think that would be the best. We are both real workaholics,” says Rik in Het Belang van Limburg. Hasselt was promoted to first amateur last season. “We now have to focus on stability. Sportingly, but also financially and in terms of our operations. From there we can try to grow further,” says Verheye.
Moreover, it is not the case that they are waving the biggest contracts, Verheye emphasizes. “Even Mehdi Bounou and Livio Milts, our two top transfers this summer, could have earned thirty to forty percent more somewhere else. Our asset is that we can offer these types of players a showcase that they cannot find anywhere else at our level. The whole of Flanders is watching. If they do well here, everyone has seen it.”
