In the mind of Marc Coucke, there is rarely room for “tranquility”. However, the businessman may be sleeping a little more peacefully these days, thanks to Anderlecht’s encouraging performances. However, on a private level, the owner of Mauves et Blancs has great concerns.
Increased stability at Anderlecht
Since the appointment of David Hubert, Anderlecht seems to have regained a certain stability in its performances. In the Europa League, the record-breaking club collected an impressive 10 points out of 12, and last weekend they secured a convincing victory against Cercle Brugge.
Persistent tensions
Despite these good results, there is no shortage of criticism, mainly from supporters. These mainly focus on the “non-executive president” Wouter Vandenhaute. The recruitment of the former manager of Standard, Olivier Renard, to replace Jesper Fredberg, also sparked reactions.
Coucke steps away from the spotlight
Marc Coucke has been less present in the news in recent months. In addition to his many professional activities, he also found time to participate in a surprising television show broadcast on VTM: Far from Home.
A family adventure
In this show, the participants go on a road trip, and Coucke takes part alongside his daughter Chloé. For the entrepreneur, this experience is unique, especially since he can share it with his daughter.
Security concerns
However, Marc Coucke does not hide his concerns. “Safety is very important to me. I don’t like taking risks at all, and going to sleep with people you don’t know seems really strange to me. At home we have 24 hour security which is not the case here. It’s truly a unique experience,” he confides to HLN. From this evening at 8:40 p.m., you can follow the adventures of Coucke and his daughter on VTM.
