Racing Genk continues the matches. His schedule is very busy and his players are starting to suffer physically, especially the youngest like Bilal El Khannouss.
The coming week will not be easy since the leaders of the Belgian championship will continue with four meetings in less than 10 days. This is why the technical management of the club decided to spare its young Atlas Lion, Bilal El Khannouss last Saturday against Zulte Waregem (18 minutes) and Tuesday evening against Westerlo (62 minutes).
“This extremely heavy load comes a month after the World Cup, where he trained much less intensively. He (Bilal) also complained after the game against Antwerp of hamstring pain. That’s why he started on the bench this Saturday (January 14).” said Wouter Vrancken.
For Friday’s match against KAS Eupen, the Limburg coach, who picked up Daniel Munoz and Joseph Paintsil, can also count on his new recruit, Anouar Aït El Hadj. The former Anderlecht midfielder joined KRC Genk this week.
