Last week, Mo Messoudi received a surprising phone call. Westerlo, the club where he was fired at the beginning of this month together with Jonas De Roeck, wanted to bring him back as assistant coach to Rik De Mil. Messoudi graciously accepted the offer.

Two weeks ago, Jonas De Roeck was fired at Westerlo after a 1-3 defeat against Anderlecht. In his wake, assistant coaches Mo Messoudi and Kevin Van Haesendonck were also thanked for their services. Last week, the Westerlo board somewhat surprisingly called Messsoudi again to ask whether the former T2 van De Roeck did not want to return. The other staff members, together with the new T1 Rik De Mil, had apparently urged the sporting bosses for his return. But Messoudi was actually done with Westerlo after two great seasons. Moreover, after several years as an assistant coach, he is ready for the step to become a head coach. Messoudi turns 40 next month and has a Pro License diploma.
