Rik De Mil has been with Club Brugge for eight years, of which two seasons as the coach of Club's U21 side Club NXT. Since 2022 he is part of the first team staff. After Sunday's victory over Standard as interim coach, De Mil is at the helm permanently until the end of the season.
Nicky Hayen (head coach Club NXT), Steve Colpaert (assistant coach Club NXT) and Wouter Biebauw (goalkeeper coach Club NXT) join De Mil in the first team staff.
CEO Vincent Mannaert: "Rik knows the club and the team like no other. His passion and ambition bring a breath of fresh air with which we want to get the maximum out of the season together with the players and everyone in the sporting staff. Thanks to the transfer of Nicky, Steve and Wouter from Club NXT we can call on a balanced staff in which young talents get the chance to develop further."
