Kjell Scherpen enjoys the highlight with Royale Union Saint-Gilloise: ‘It is not possible to be better’

The 2.06 meter long goalie is having a good time in Brussels. “Union is a warm club that is in a rising line. They have a very good scouting with a lot of data. Whether they have achieved me? Maybe also. I have had two good years in Austria. Fortunately they came to me.

I was looking for a next step after two championships with Sturm Graz. You prefer to go to a top 5 competition, but you must also be realistic. That step was perhaps a bit too big. Then comes the champion of Belgium, which plays Champions League. It is also a bit closer to home. My wife is expecting our second child. Those are also things that play a role. “

Scherpen was disappointed by the late 1-3 of Ruben van Bommel. ,, If you get it in such a way at the end, that is really a shame. I would have liked to have kept the zero five times in a row. That is a damper, but it can’t spoil the fun. It is a fantastic start to the Champions League. We had already started the competition in Belgium well. We are very good at defensive. We feel good each other, don’t give much away either. “

At the end of last season, Scherpen was with Oranje, but he was not called up in the past international match. ,, The competition is great. There are many keepers at the moment who help a good level. I’m not going to talk to myself or anything. I was there in June. That is always nice. Hopefully they will call again. But I just keep doing my thing. “
