De Boeck out until the winter break

Glen De Boeck is out until the winter break. The player has a meniscus injury, and should undergo an artroscopia. Today the 33-year old captain will undergo a scanner examination, for a definite diagnosis.

If this diagnosis is more serious than the first one, it is not unlikely that he will be unavailable for several months.

This is bad news again for Anderlecht, because defender Hannu Tihinen, who played this weekend with the reserve team, probably won't be fit enough for Saturday's match against Germinal Beerschot.
