Van Holsbeeck: "Sonck is out of the question"

Anderlecht are short on fit strikers. What about reinforcements? "We are only looking for reinforcements when other players leave", explained manager Herman Van Holsbeeck in the press.


"Sonck is out of the question at the moment. We were interested last season but he refused to play for us. That shocked us."

"Thomas Buffel is a good player, but we already have Zetterberg and Baseggio to play on his position. On top of that are the wages higher in the Netherlands."

"Whether we missed a chance with Stein Huysegems? I remember him from me period in Lierse. He's talented, but we'll have to wait and see if he can keep up his good prestations. He's playing for a smaller Dutch club, we are a club with European ambition. That's a big difference."
