Aruna: "Maybe I'll stay one more year"

Aruna Dindane had some great moments, but also bad moments in Brussels. But one thing is for sure: he will be missed when he leaves the club at the end of the season. Or is he going to stay after all?


"I still have a contract for one year. If there is no decent offer for me, I'll stay for one more year. I don't want to go through the same thing as in August. I was really focussed on a transfer, but it didn't work out. I was really disappointed."

"A transfer to a French club? Maybe, yes. Ajax? No, I want to play in one of the strongest leagues. I don't have to play for a top club, a smaller one is good enough. I just want to play exciting games every week."

Despite the fact that his departure is not sure yet, Aruna looks back on the 5 years he stayed in Belgium. "I've become a man here", he says.

"I've had glory, I've had bad moments. I got arrested in a shop last year. I hope I don't have to go through that again. That was right after I had won the Golden Shoe."

And what about his bad relationship with the referees? "They are all my friends! I like them all! There is just one thing they have to learn. Football is not like science. They can be wrong too and they should learn to admit that."
