Defour played with Anderlecht T1: “As a kid, Hubert already looked like a coach”

Do you see enough talent in this team to play for the top of the table?

“I see a course of action. Under Riemer, they played forward and then in possession, they improvised. Hubert established running lines, a style of play.”

It’s hard not to talk about Kasper Dolberg’s form…

“I had already seen him play at this level at Ajax. I just wondered if he was capable of doing it again. He is coming back to this level. And Anderlecht needs a striker like that if they want to play for the title. You know the cliché: you need a great scorer and a great goalkeeper to be champions.”

Dolberg beats all his personal bests, but a Kangaroo was even stronger in Anderlecht

You haven’t coached for a year now. When will we see you face David Hubert?

“There have been discussions with clubs; but I am in a luxury position where I don’t have to accept everything that is offered to me. I want to join a project that suits me 100%.”

Do you keep your goal of being a coach?

“Yes, but by working in the right conditions. I am not actively looking, even if I am regularly contacted by clubs, but I have the time. I maintain myself physically so as not to gain weight and I remain active in the world football as an analyst I will work Thursday evening and will not be able to go to Anderlecht-Porto.
