With the injury to Matthieu Epolo, Arnaud Bodart was prepared to keep the Standard cages against Kortrijk. Sclessin’s favorite, however, has joined Metz, which leaves Ivan Leko in an uncomfortable situation just over 24 hours before an important meeting for the Rouches.
The puzzle is still colossal for Ivan Leko, who confirmed that he is still without several players for the reception in Kortrijk this Friday. In addition, the Rouches coach saw Arnaud Bodart leave for FC Metz, while Matthieu Epolo is injured. So who will defend the Liège cages against the Kerels?
“We’ll see. I’m of course disappointed with Arnaud’s departure, we had prepared him to play tomorrow. We knew for six months that he was looking for a new challenge, he arrived. In a moment delicate for us, while Matthieu is injured and Arnaud was important in the two matches he played, in which we took four points. It’s a shame, but that’s life, we knew that. could come at any time.”
Ivan Leko will “play at the casino” to choose his goalkeeper against Kortrijk
Will Laurent Henkinet, returning from injury, certainly pass in front of Tom Poitoux and Mattéo Godfroid? “We’ll see, Laurent has been training for several weeks but I don’t know if he is physically fit. It will be him or one of the two little ones (sic).”
-“Laurent’s last official match was back, it’s a little bit of the casino. Tomorrow, we’re going to go to the casino and we’re going to see. My hierarchy? It’s Arnaud Bodart and Matthieu Epolo. For the rest, we’re going to see the feeling with the three goalkeepers We will discuss it, as well as with Jean-François Gillet, who will give us his opinion.
“The goalkeeper position is an important position, but the most important thing is the way we play. If we play well, the task will be easier for the goalkeeper, no matter who it is,” concluded Ivan Leko. Laurent Henkinet still seems to be starting with a head start.
