Coucke becomes new Anderlecht boss

OTHER What a surprise: Marc Coucke becomes the new owner of Anderlecht. The Board of Directors responded to his proposal. The agreement will be further negotiated in the coming days. Coucke takes over seventy percent of the shares. 


The remaining thirty percent of the shares remain in the hands of the minority of shareholders who are already co-owners of the club. According to the club, these shareholders "remain on board to ensure the embedding of the club"

Coucke is currently owner of KV Ostend and it is impossible to own two clubs in one league. He will therefore leave KV Ostend to someone else. To whom or what, that must be proven in the coming days. Since the acquisition of Anderlecht has to be done for New Year, the sale of Ostend will also go fast.
