A knee injury of the worst kind for Christian Fellaini
81 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 bow out of the cup
KV Kortrijk go through and KV Oostende go home, 0‑3 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

KV Oostende turn down Bayer Leverkusen for Radja Courtois
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.
Player ratings31 Aug 2026
A brace, and Mousa Batshuayi takes the afternoon — 7.99
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Mousa Batshuayi provided it, and the 7.99 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

A cup hiding at KV Kortrijk leaves KV Oostende explaining themselves
0-3, and long before the end the away end had switched from encouragement to something considerably more pointed. Nobody rings a phone-in about losing narrowly.

Timothy Batshuayi 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.

Dani van den Heuvel is a KV Oostende player
The fee is $880.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. OH Leuven drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Tempers go at KV Oostende
Mousa Mertens was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

KV Oostende find a way past Club Brugge
Club Brugge made KV Oostende work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑2 at the end and the table does not ask how.
In brief
- Squad Jan Vertonghen falls out with a teammate over standards
- Squad Jan Vertonghen gets it from the manager
- Match Mousa Batshuayi at the heart of a fast KV Oostende start
