Investing in our own youth players is one of Beerschot's top priorities. Wednesday afternoon Benjamin Kaissi, Keano De Stobbeleir and Lukas Rocha Torres signed their very first contract, fulfilling our club's and their main ambition.
Benjamin "Benji" Kaissi will soon start at his tenth season at Beerschot. He already was a member of our first team squad and played almost all games for our U23 team as a right back.
Keano De Stobbeleir and Lukas Rocha Torres featured in our U18 team last season and will start their third and fourth season respectively in July. Both players were picked up to train with Andreas Wieland's first team squad and both played their games with the U18 and U23 alternatively. Rocha Torres has fully recovered from injury and returned fully fit last February
