Reflecting on his future, Van Hamel mentioned his desire to continue playing professional football and hinted at a potential move to the Pro League next season. He expressed gratitude towards RAAL La Louvière and its supporters, emphasizing his positive experience at the club.
While the financial aspects played a role in the negotiations, Van Hamel remains optimistic about his future in professional football. He is determined to build on his successful season and is eager to continue his football journey in the upcoming season.
As the football landscape continues to evolve, Van Hamel’s next destination in the Pro League remains uncertain. However, his dedication to the sport and his hunger for success indicate that he is ready for the challenges that lie ahead.
