My father was a footballer in the Belgian top division, then we moved around a bit. From Antwerp to Liege, then to Brussels. When we returned to Antwerp I started playing. football at six years old. It was 20 minutes from where we lived, I didn’t have a car, so I went to the regional team and played there for a year, then Liers came and stayed there for two years. and also won the Belgian championship twice. Then I moved to Anderlecht, my childhood team. My debut at Anderlecht gave me a very strong feeling, it was something I had dreamed of since I was six years old. I thought that if he did it, then I could do it too. He is of the same origin as me, his father is also from Brussels. He also studied at the Academy, so when he debuted, he encouraged me to continue and try. did the same, I played my first match and immediately after that I was only thinking about scoring goals, which is what I did in the second match.”
