Kris De Wree suffered a broken arm in training this afternoon. This diagnosis was confirmed at the hospital, and the right back will be out for at least 6 weeks.

Also Ahmed Samir (ankle injury in training) and Roel Van Hemert (ankle injury suffered during STVV-Lierse) are very doubtful for Friday's opening home match against Standard. Both players will undergo additional examination tomorrow, when the full extent of the injuries can be assessed.

There was better news for Mo Wahed, the Egyptian playmaker can resume group training.
