Dejan Velkovic let loose in an interview with Het Laatste Nieuws. After revealing several names to investigators, he did the same in the press.
Dejan Velkovic’s interview is making noise. Damaged by Operation “Clean Hands” and now repentant, the Serbian agent declared loud and clear that the vast majority of Belgian football is corrupt. He brings some concrete cases to the table.
The first concerns the arrival of Milan Jovanovic at Anderlecht. At the time, the man we called “The Serpent” left Liverpool to sign with the Mauves for barely 800,000 euros. “The Anderlecht board of directors asked me to develop a foreign structure to remunerate them,” explains Velkovic.
Tax havens are operating at full capacity
The Club de Bruges would have used the same route: “They offered me to partly cover the severance pay of Georges Leekens (then in charge of the Red Devils) through my company in Cyprus”. Dejan Velkovic adds that Genk also used it for a tax construction to pay Peter Maes.
But that’s not all: even the federation is doing it: “Do you think it’s normal that the CEO, in collaboration with the financial director and president, asks me to pay their goalkeeper coach partly under the table via the ‘stranger ?” he asks himself.
The facts in the viewfinder of the “Main Propres” operation are obviously not limited to the actors mentioned above, the inter-personal nature of Belgian football is unfortunately generalized. But if the facts described turn out to be true, the bill could be steep.
