"I'm glad that Lonwijk is back. Because he is very different from Amouzou, Azar, Dreyer and Flips.

Lonwijk was very unhappy with his injury, which he picked up at a very bad time - at that time our team was just starting to take shape. Anderlecht had a lot of new players coming in and he couldn't fight for his place. He had to wait a long time, but now he is in the squad. It's really positive news.

Lonwijk is a very valuable player. He can bring a lot to the team with his quality and focus in every episode. Lonwijk is really always focused on the opponent's goal and is very good at penetrating into the penalty area. At the same time, Justin is versatile - he can play on the flanks, as a striker or in the centre zone," Rimmer said at his regular press conference.
