Club Brugge geplaagd door onderlinge strijd voor Celtic UCL-duel

Club Brugge geplaagd door onderlinge strijd voor Celtic UCL-duel.

Celtic’s next Champions League opponents have been rocked after it emerged their players were lambasted by their chairman after Club Brugge threw away a two goal lead

And Belgian international defender Hugo Siquet added to the gloom by blasting his own manager Nicky Hayen for a lack of playing time.

 

The Hoops face the Belgians in the next game of the competition later this month in Glasgow.

 

But Brugge have had an indifferent start to the season and tensions reached boiling point last weekend after they were held to a 2-2 draw by bottom club Beerschot despite being two goals up.

 

Belgian media have reported Club Brugge chairman Bart Verhaeghe was so angry, he stormed into the dressing room after the match to remind the players of their responsibilities and was reportedly ‘furious’ after the game.

 

Now young defender Siquet has publicly criticised boss Hayen for a lack of game opportunities despite the club splashing out £3 million to land him during the summer from Freiburg.

 

He said: “The situation for me is not good and mentally it is very difficult.

 

“I try to give everything for the club and I will continue to do so until the last moment, but I get little in return.

 

“I have the right mentality, I think I show a lot of maturity and when I get my chance, I will be ready and seize it.”
