The ex-Liverpool man now hopes his former employers can see out the season on top after taking the Belgian crown in his debut term in Bruges
Club Brugge goalkeeper Simon Mignolet has revealed that news of the side's Jupiler Pro League win came out of the blue - and via a text message.
The Bruges club led the Belgian top flight prior to the coronavirus lockdown by 15 points with one game left in the regular season. At the start of April, however, the Belgian FA made the decision to cut the 2019-20 short, awarding the title to Brugge.
