Philippe Léonard reveals English offers

Posted by m on July 7, 2007

Phillipe Léonard claims to have two offers to move to England. After a bad year in Rotterdam, the Belgian international is now looking for a new challenge.

The 33-year-old joined Feyenoord last season, but has endured a nightmare time in Rotterdam, where he only played two Eredivisie matches. Léonard’s most painful moment this season was the match against arch rivals ajax, where he got substituted after 30 minutes in the first half. The Belgian international didn’t play a single match for Feyenoord ever since and didn’t see his contract renewed at the end of the season. Léonard played 25 matches for the Belgian national team and his career also includes a seven-year stint at AS Monaco. His other clubs were OGC Nice and Standard Liege.

Now Léonard says he has the chance to move to the Championship. “I have trial offers from two English second division sides and that interests me.” he told HNB. Earlier two French second division teams showed their interest.

“But a return to Belgium is an option as well.” says Léonard.
