RSC Anderlecht has had an excellent start to the season. Purple & White are temporarily at the top after taking nine out of nine and want to continue their good streak at home against Charleroi. Newcomer Thomas Delaney should help with that.
The experienced Danish midfielder will strengthen Brussels’ midfield. He was rented from Spanish club Sevilla until the end of the season, with an option to buy. Delaney appeared before the assembled press for the first time on Friday and explained his choice of Anderlecht. It seems that Brian Rimmer played a decisive role in this.
“I have to be honest. Brian Rimmer is a very convinced man,” said Delaney. “He didn’t stop calling me, so I said yes. The rhetoric of Jasper Friedberg and Brian Reimer was also very convincing. I want to play a part in reviving Anderlecht. Even for the Dane, it’s still very big.” A club with a great history.”

What position is Delaney best at? He realizes: “As a game distributor, I must achieve more.” “In the ideal scenario, the midfield positions would be interchangeable. Then sometimes I’d be number six, sometimes number eight. To be there with the interaction. It wouldn’t work from day one.”
“I especially want to be very involved in the game,” he aims. “I love the strength and physical impact of the Belgian competition.” Delaney could make his (primary) debut immediately this weekend.
