This just in

This morning, the group trained in several groups. Those who played Gent yesterday went for a fitness run, while the others had a training on the pitch. Jeroen Simaeys and Ronald Vargas both had an extensive fitness training of a couple of kilometers. Carl Hoefkens was replaced yesterday after conceding an ankle injury. Both Carl and Ronald Vargas had a scan taken, which was reassuring for both. On Wednesday they will be rejoining the group. Wesley Sonck is intensifying his training activity, and will also be rejoining in the coming days.

The players will be having the day off tomorrow. For some players, however, there will be two revalidation sessions in order to help the healing process. On Wednesday, there will be an afternoon training session, followed by preparations behind closed doors as the group prepares for the game against Partizan of Thursday.
