Radja Nainggolan, a former Belgian international playing for Patro Eisden, has faced disciplinary action at the club. Initially, reports indicated his role had diminished and he was excluded from the matchday squad against Dender following a loss to Eupen, with coach Stijn Stijnen calling for more responsibility from veteran players.

It was later confirmed that Nainggolan received a two-match suspension for failing to adhere to internal club agreements. Coach Stijnen stated that while the player’s lifestyle was not the issue, certain ‘red lines’ were crossed. Nainggolan acknowledged the situation, noting, “The problem is not what I did, but the fact that I did not say it.” Stijnen described the matter as non-sensational and indicated there is no permanent rift between the player and the club.
