A knee injury of the worst kind for Kevin De Bruyne
19 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. KV Oostende lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

KV Oostende through in the cup
A 1‑0 win over KV Kortrijk, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.
Match29 Aug 2026
KV Oostende let it slip despite Eden Doku
Eden Doku had done his part in building a 2-goal cushion. What happened after that was collective, and Club Brugge were allowed back into a match that had been finished with.

Cruel end for KV Kortrijk as KV Oostende pounce
There is no crueller way to lose a football match. KV Oostende scored in the 105th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.
Player ratings31 Aug 2026
Eden Doku scores twice — 8.54
Two goals and a mark of 8.54 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.
Player ratings31 Aug 2026
Thorgan Doku, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 8.02
A mark of 8.02 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

KV Oostende sell a favourite for $2.8M
The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Dedryck Januzaj was one of the reasons people came, and $2.8M does not replace that by itself.

Charles Fellaini asks to leave KV Oostende
“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Business is business: Dedryck Januzaj goes
Racing Genk paid $2.8M and KV Oostende took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.
