Antwerp loses several sponsors due to the appointment of Marc Overmars as technical director. The Belgian football club had recently appointed Overmars, despite his departure from Ajax due to inappropriate behavior.

What happened?

Select Groep, a company specialized in personnel management, was the first sponsor to terminate its contract with the club. 'The decision to appoint Overmars goes directly against the values and norms of our company', states a statement.

Why it matters for Antwerp

The club not only loses Select Groep but also other sponsors such as Decroes and Federale Verzekering. This can have significant consequences for the club's finances.

What comes next?

Antwerp must now look for new sponsors to compensate for the financial loss. The club had recently won against KVC Westerlo with 2-0 on 2026-05-23. The recent form of the club is 2W-2D-1L, with a winning streak of two games.
