INTERVIEWS Michel Vlap is eager to play his first official game for RSC Anderlecht. The Dutchman had a future plan in mind for some time. RSC Anderlecht fits that list perfectly.

Transfer

RSC Anderlecht and Vlap had found each other quickly, only Heerenveen did not want to let him go. So a lot had to be done before the transfer was completed. "Personally it was quite difficult", is Vlap honest, "Fortunately an agreement was reached. One of 8 million euros plus bonuses. It is strange that I am suddenly worth so much. But when you see where I come from, it is of course beautiful."

Supporters

Despite the high transfer price, Vlap has no star allures, on the contrary: "At Heerenveen I had a great relationship with the supporters, I want that here too. That's why I want to take French lessons. That way I can talk to all supporters."

"But the best way to make you loved is, of course, scoring," laughs the Dutchman, "Everyone wants Anderlecht to become a successful club again, the board, the supporters. And I think Vincent Kompany will succeed too, he can do that and I want to help him by scoring a lot. If there is an attack, you have to be in the box and I will be there. I really feel like it. "
