Bommetje in Limburg: Will Vrancken leave Genk immediately? | Football24

The relationship between KRC Genk and Wouter Vrancken (45) is seriously disturbed. The relationship between the club management and the coach had been tense for some time. Now the lack of trust seems to make the possibility of further cooperation almost impossible. The Nieuwsblad reports this.

The tensions between the Genk club management and coach Wouter Vrancken have been palpable for some time. After a successful first season, in which Genk played sparkling football under Vrancken and was only one minute away from the national title, the results in the second year were against expectations.

An apparently relaxed Vrancken led training on Wednesday, but there is a good chance that it was the last time he stood in front of the playing group. Behind the scenes there are intensive discussions to finalize a divorce.

The contract that runs until mid-2026, in which both parties are bound to a significant severance payment, does not appear to be able to maintain a marriage of convenience. Mutual trust is simply non-existent. The possibility that KRC Genk and AA Gent will meet each other on June 2 in a direct match for a European ticket makes the situation even more complicated.
