This summer, Charles Vanhouttea marked a decisive turning point in his sports career by joining the GOC Nice, a Ligue 1 team. After a mixed start to the season, marked by a single win in three days, Vanhouttea was titularized in the match against Nantes. This meeting was crucial for the Nice team, as a defeat would have allowed Nantes to surpass them in the standings. The Belgian midfielder, who arrived for six million euros, fully justified his transfer by delivering a decisive pass, allowing Jérémy Boga to score the game’s only goal. Vanhouttea played the entire meeting, contributing to this important victory for the GOC Nice.

The OGC Nice now has a busy schedule, with a next home game against Brest before starting its participation in the Europa League against the AS Roma of Mile Svilar. At the same time, the Union Saint-Gilloise made a successful trip to Dendermonde, imposing itself in the last minutes thanks to a remarkable courage and seizing the three points. This victory allows the team to focus on its next game, an important match in Eindhoven for its first Champions League match against the Dutch champion PSV.

In view of the Champions League, the Union Saint-Gilloise has made a change in its list of potentially selectable players. Marc Gigot replaces Mohammed Fuseini, who is unfortunately injured and will be absent for several months due to an ankle injury. This decision is logical given the injuries and suspensions that limited the club’s offensive options. The Fuseini situation, combined with the suspensions of Raul Florucz, required this measure to maintain the team’s competitiveness.
