Ethan Horvath may no longer be the starter at Club Brugge. The 22-year-old American was benched by Brugge coach Ivan Leko for last weekend’s match against Anderlecht and the coach indicated that there is now a three-way competition for the starting job.
Leko told Dutch outlet Nieuws that he wanted to give Guillaume Hubert a chance due to Horvath’s “individual mistakes.” Horvath has started 16 matches this season for Club Brugge, including 2 Champions League and 2 Europa League starts. He also is expected by many fans to feature in the competition for the starting job for the United States during the next cycle.
