Despite a harrowing wrist shatter from a clumsy household mishap, he channeled that frustration into the rhythmic balance and razor-sharp long-range precision that now define his game. This humble Belgian magician glides past defenders with hypnotic dribbling, though he still occasionally squanders clear chances when the net seems wide open. His relentless drive proves that even the most fragile recovery can forge a relentless playmaker.
