Our Unionists faced SK Beveren, the proud leaders of the Challenger Pro League, in a friendly match today. The game, played at the training centre in Zaventem, ended in a 2–0 victory thanks to goals from Pavlic and Biondic. The starting XI mainly consisted of players who did not feature in yesterday’s Champions League clash against Atalanta BC.

Many had written Union off, but we still collected 9 points in our very first Champions League campaign. Against Atalanta BC, a single goal from Khalaili was enough to secure our first home victory. In the end, our negative goal difference proved costly and we are eliminated from the next round.

Fans with a ticket for the game or a UCL mini-abo can download their ticket on ticketing.rusg.brussels from Wednesday 28/01 at 3 pm. We advise our supporters to travel to Lotto Park by public transport.

Makate joined the first team this summer from our U23 side. He will spend the second half of the 2025–2026 season on loan at RAAL La Louvière. There, Cristian will be looking for more playing time as he continues his development.

This position has been filled. 
La Royale Union Saint-Gilloise is looking for a physiotherapist for its youth academy.

Union Saint-Gilloise were held to a goalless draw away at OH Leuven after a largely uneventful encounter. The visitors looked to make the difference in the first half but failed to register a single shot on target. After the break, the home side took control and regularly put the Brussels defence under pressure, but goalkeeper Scherpen ensured Union came away with a point.

At 28, Mathias Rasmussen continues his career with German top-flight side St. Pauli, coached by our former manager Alexander Blessin. The move is a permanent transfer.

In collaboration with Inter Vlaanderen, the club will organize a visually impaired stand for its Champions League match against Atalanta BC at Lotto Park. Visually impaired fans can request a ticket (€37) by email, and their accompanying person is admitted for free. Kick off is at 21:00.

A strong first half was undone by a goal from a corner and a penalty, both finished by Harry Kane. Union missed the chance to take the lead through Promise David, but still delivered a strong performance at the very highest level.

Our Unionists will play the semi-finals of the Belgian Cup for the third time in four years. We will face Sporting Charleroi, who defeated Club Brugge at home in the previous round. We will first play away on Wednesday 4 February at 20:30, before the return leg the following week at our Marien Stadium on Wednesday 11 February at 20:30.
