DR Congo’s Dieumerci Mbokani extends Antwerp’s stay

Dieumerci Mbokani has signed a one-year contract extension with Belgian First Division A club Royal Antwerp.

The 33-year-old joined the Great Old from Dynamo Kyiv in August and was impressive, scoring 14 goals and providing nine assists across all competitions.

His performances helped Laszlo Boloni’s men clinch a Uefa Europa League playoff spot, where they lost to Sporting Charleroi.

On the back of these fine displays, the former Hull City striker has earned a chance to continue his stay at the Bosuilstadion.

“We are therefore proud to announce that Dieumerci Mbokani has just signed a new contract that will connect him to our club until 30 June 2020,” read a statement from the club website.
