Club Brugge was able to convince on Tuesday and defeated Sporting CP 2-1. Another European victory for Blauw-Zwart, which takes a good step towards qualifying for the next round. Chairman Bart Verhaeghe couldn’t believe his luck and sees Club Brugge making an increasing name for itself in Europe.
Eight points was the hope in this campaign, but Club Brugge now has ten points and can therefore hope for a place in the top 24 at the end of the competition phase. “Fantastic and unexpected, because after PSG we had the most difficult draw,” says Verhaeghe The Newspaper.
Club Brugge continues to make a name for itself in Europe and impresses not only in Belgium, but also in Europe. “Everyone now realizes that we are not a one-hit wonder,” Verhaeghe beams. “Clubs also ask how we are doing in extra-sports terms. Financially, our balance sheets are turning green, while many European clubs have difficulty with this. So I can only be a satisfied and grateful chairman,” he said.
But Verhaeghe goes for more with Club Brugge. He remains very ambitious with the national champion. “We’re bluvn goan. Club Brugge’s hunger has not yet been satisfied,” he concludes.
