De Boeck openly applying for job at Anderlecht

This week, Kortrijk fired Freyr Alexandersson after around a year of service. The Icelander arrived at the Stade des Éperons d'Or at the end of 2023 following the departure of Glen De Boeck, who, after a controversial period of only two months, had already been dismissed.

A long wait before a possible new opportunity

Since then, the 53-year-old has been without a club, and it is far from certain that he will find a position as head coach. Before his adventure in Kortrijk, he had already waited no less than four years to get a coaching job, which will not work in his favor with potential clubs.

De Boeck eyes return to Anderlecht

In an interview given to The NewspaperDe Boeck nevertheless mentions other challenges that interest him. Thus, he openly applied for a return to Anderlecht, where he spent most of his career.

Between 1995 and 2005, De Boeck wore the club's colors for almost ten years. After his retirement, he immediately joined the staff as an assistant to Frank Vercauteren, a position he held for around two and a half years before beginning his career as head coach at Cercle Bruges.

An ambition to work with David Hubert

Today, De Boeck wants to return to a behind-the-scenes role with the Mauves et Blancs. “I have already spoken about it with David Hubert. He was my captain at Mouscron and is doing a good job now. I even went to his wedding. I am convinced that I could be of added value for him,” he said. he declared. “I’m just waiting for the right moment to contact technical director Olivier Renard.”

Anderlecht ready to welcome De Boeck?

However, it remains to be seen whether Anderlecht would be willing to welcome De Boeck as their assistant. The club recently appointed former FA member Jonathan Alves as their new assistant. This could indicate that Hubert's staff is already full.
