INTERVIEWS Fred Rutten does not yet speak about transfers right away. The Dutchman is convinced that there is more quality in the group than the results show. Only after the training camp and the two friendly games there will be a meeting about possible transfers.


RSC Anderlecht have a friendly game in Pinatar on Sunday and then leave for Belgium. But for the time being they still live under the Spanish sun: "It is a beautiful training complex here", says Rutten, "A beautiful environment to train in. And I see on training that my players want to work hard, they also radiate that and that gives me a good feeling. "

The Dutch do not want to pronounce on transfers yet. "I think that Anderlecht have more quality in their team than the results show at the moment. A training is not really suitable to see the quality, that is why we play the two friendly games. Then I will better estimate the quality. After those two games we will also sit together to see what is still needed. "

Does Rutten believe anyway in the title? "The first thing we have to do now is to lose fewer matches, we have to reduce the distance to the number 1. I always go for the highest, but first we have to start winning games now. If that succeeds, you will automatically have more options in the playoffs. "

The first match after the winter break is the away match against AA Gent. "A difficult game, are there any easy matches in today's football? In any case, we will be well prepared and go for the three points", says Rutten.
