Remco Evenepoel to be honoured by his former football team RSC Anderlecht on Thursday
Cycling
Prior to starting his professional cycling career, Remco Evenepoel played football. In the past, he has played for the Belgian football club Anderlecht. Before kick-off against West Ham United, the team will pay tribute to world champion cycling Remco Evenepoel.
Remco Evenepoel is the first Belgian to win World Championships in a decade. The country has celebrated his victory, and his former football team does not want to be left out of the celebration.
Anderlecht is scheduled to play against West Ham United on Thursday on the field of the Lotto Park in Brussels, but before that, the team will honour World champion and Vuelta final winner Remco Evenepoel. "Remco, a child of the Purple & White House, will be honoured on the field before kick-off", read the statement released by Anderlecht.
