This is from GE football about Belgium club K.V. Kortrijk

"This hope had been disappearing rapidly since the end of the 2022/2023 season.”

“Their owner, Vincent Tan, was clearly no longer interested in owning the club. As he looked to sell, they failed to sign any players or appoint a manager for weeks. By the time a sale had fallen through, they were playing catch up and it was evident in a terrible start to the season.”

“Despite Tan’s lack of interest, the players and the fan base have shown what can be achieved with very little. Now its over to Tan, who must either recommit to the club or finally find the right person"

This season Tan had 3 different managers at KV Kortrijk

Vincent Tan Sacked another manager after KV Kortrijk's poor start to the campaign has led to Glen De Boeck getting the chop. Last year the whole previous management team walked out on Tan, saying he was arrogant and that he had no idea about football.

‘ Inside Vincent Tan's other chaotic club ‘

Vincent Tan promised so much, but never delivered and the club is now in chaos.

Vincent Tan bought KV Kortrijk back in 2015, but it's safe to say the club have not hit the heights they would have hoped during his tenure. Just this most recent season, like Cardiff, Kortrijk were fending off relegation. Tan sacked manager Adnan Čustović in November, just two months after letting Steve Morison go and two months before relieving Mark Hudson of his duties.


Current KVK manager Bernd Storck is also set to leave at the end of the season, with players walking out and staff saying Tan is very arrogant.

While Cardiff are currently also rudderless, with the club having announced that Sabri Lamouchi would not be handed a new contract to take the Bluebirds into the 2023/24 campaign.

That, coupled with Matthias Leterme, the CEO, and Ronny Verhelst, the president all saying they’ve had enough and walking out, points to a very blurred and chaotic picture in Kortrijk. A quite familiar picture for Cardiff fans, to say the least.




So, we sought some clarity to see what was actually going on. We spoke to Flemish newspaper Het Nieuwsblad's Kortrijk correspondent Elian Coussement about the feeling from the fans towards Tan, the current situation and what's really going on with his reported attempts to sell the Belgian side...

He has lost interest in all of his clubs.

Maybe he was naive in thinking he was able to turn a profit by owning football clubs.

Either way, he isn't liked anywhere he is involved it seems
