EXCLUSIVE. For years, Herman Van Holsbeeck exchanged 500 euro notes in black money at the self-checkout Delhaize and in car washes: “Our bank safe was too small for all those notes”

Because all his black money could no longer be stored in his safe, then Anderlecht manager Herman Van Holsbeeck (71) was forced to rent a larger bank safe. He himself confessed this in the investigation into ‘cheating broker’ Dejan Veljkovic (56). Detectives investigated why Van Holsbeeck, during his glory years at the Purple & White, bought a trinket in Delhaize several times a week and paid 500 euros each time. In the coming week, Van Holsbeeck will be in court in Brussels for allegedly defrauding Marc Coucke (61) in the sale of RSC Anderlecht.
