Former goalkeeper Jean-Marie Pfaff noted that while the club has faced setbacks that altered its traditional DNA, recent progress is encouraging. He highlighted the leadership of goalkeeper Colin Coosemans and pointed to a 0-3 victory against Kairat Almaty in European competition as a sign of strength. Pfaff cautioned competitors not to underestimate the team during this resurgence. Following these developments, sporting director Antoine Sibierski has formalized the club’s ambitions under a new sporting structure involving coach Vitor Bruno. Sibierski described his management approach as a form of ‘healthy, positive arrogance’ intended to maintain the club’s heritage. He has set a specific objective for the squad to reach the top three in the league, aiming to close the gap with top-tier competitors such as Club Brugge and Union SG. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-10: Antoine Sibierski sets ambitious goals for RSC Anderlecht RSC Anderlecht sporting director Antoine Sibierski aims to restore the club to the top of Belgian football, setting a goal to reach the top three and challenging rivals like Club Brugge. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/antoine-sibierski-sets-ambitious-goals-for-rsc-anderlecht ### 2026-08-23: Jean-Marie Pfaff warns competitors not to underestimate RSC Anderlecht Former goalkeeper Jean-Marie Pfaff suggests RSC Anderlecht is showing signs of recovery and warns competitors not to underestimate the club as they aim to return to the top of Belgian football. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/jean-marie-pfaff-warns-competitors-not-to-underestimate-rsc-anderlecht --- Cite as: RSC Anderlecht competitive resurgence.
