The KV Kortrijk Post
Match5 Sep 2026
KV Kortrijk taken apart
1‑6 to Club Brugge, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Abdoul Diop says no to ASO Chlef
“I listened, I thought about it, and I am staying. That is the whole story.” The clubs had agreed a fee. Abdoul Diop had not agreed to go, which turned out to be the part that mattered.

KV Kortrijk close the window on a squad of their own making
6 in and 10 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

KV Kortrijk say no — this time
The offer from Mouscron for Ilan Hurtevent was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.
Match5 Sep 2026
Mousa Kompany among the goals in a wild afternoon
7 goals in one match, Mousa Kompany on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of KV Kortrijk and Club Brugge.

Goduine Koyalipou falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.
The dugout7 Sep 2026
The manager makes an example of Thomas Delaine
“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.

Beaten 6 times: a bad day for Marko Ilić
5 saves does not settle the argument about whose fault it was, and the argument will run all week. Goalkeepers carry these scorelines whoever caused them.

Doors closed at KV Kortrijk
The music was off and the showers ran late. What was said in that dressing room stays there, but Saturday will publish the minutes.
In brief
- Squad Modeste Duku in a row with a teammate
- Squad 13 new faces, and KV Kortrijk are still learning each other
- The dugout Toby Courtois faces the questions
