It is under the orders of Marc Wilmots what Romelu Lukaku participated in its first major international competition, the 2014 World Cup, under the colors of the Belgian national team. Naples’ striker thinks that the return of Willy At Standard, in the role of sports director, is a very good thing for the Liège club, as for the Belgian championship.
“I hope the Belgian championship will become competitive again as in our heyday, when I still played in Belgium, reveals Romelu Lukaku at the RTBF microphone during a long interview. I will not say that the championship is less strong, because the Belgian clubs are more efficient on the European scene, but it is different.“
And a more competitive pro League also goes through more competitive historic clubs, such as Anderlecht or Standard. What thinks Big Rom’ The arrival of Marc Wilmots in the RSCL organization chart?
“It’s good for Belgian football, we know each other very well, Details the Red Devil. I think it’s the right person, in the right club, to start from scratch. And to go from zero to 100! This can be a problem for other clubs in Belgium. For Bruges, for Anderlecht… for everyone! He is someone who knows football, who has played at the high level, who has trained at the high level … I am honest, because I know what he is capable of. He did it with our selection, when we were nowhere. It can be the same thing at the standard now. They also brought back a former coach who had been performing there (Mircea Rednic, NDLR)they only miss the players. If they also bring players back, it can be a problem! For Belgian football, the best thing is that all the big clubs are efficient, and that there is an internal competition. And I also hope that young Belgian players will receive their luck, it would be good for the national team.“
