The KV Kortrijk Post
Squad28 Dec 2026
The knee: Brecht Dejaegere out for 88 days
88 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. KV Kortrijk lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.
Squad28 Dec 2026
A fracture rules Maecky Ngombo out for 63 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason KV Kortrijk will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.
Player ratings28 Dec 2026
Nobody could get near Jellert Van Landschoot
Successful dribbles: 30. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
Squad28 Dec 2026
Marko Ilić in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at KV Kortrijk this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Words at KV Kortrijk training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Goduine Koyalipou is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
The dugout28 Dec 2026
The manager makes an example of Gustaf Nilsson
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
Match26 Dec 2026
A bad afternoon for KV Kortrijk against Waasland-Beveren
0‑1 to Waasland-Beveren, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.
The dugout28 Dec 2026
The view from the dugout
“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑1 defeat, delivered by Eden De Ketelaere to a room that had heard them before.
Market28 Dec 2026
No place for Yohan Mollo in the plan
“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Yohan Mollo has his answer from KV Kortrijk; what he does with it is the next window’s story.
In brief
- The dugout When it matters, Goduine Koyalipou plays
- The dugout James Ndjeungoue dropped after a run of poor form
- Market Marko Ilić linked with a move away
