Club Has Basecamp, Anderlecht Has Neerpede and Union... Trains Next to Tennis Courts: a Look at the Very Modest Training Complex of the Leader

The Union can write a great moment in its history on Sunday, but in case of a title against La Gantoise, the Pro League helicopter would not land either in Saint-Gilles or even in Forest.

Union has been training for several years at a training complex in Lier, far outside Brussels. It shares it with a tennis and padel club, a Barcelona fan club, a sauna complex and an indoor playground. Nevertheless, coach Sébastien Pocognoli has managed to create a ‘bubble’ for his players and the results speak for themselves.
