(Pro League 1B) and KRC Genk (Pro League – U21).

With the KRC Genk U21 team, he won in the 2021-2022 season the national championship by a large margin. The newcomer by KAS Eupen is an exceptionally talented, ambitious and polyvalent player who can be deployed on the right side as well as in the centre of the defence.

Christoph Henkel, general director of KAS Eupen: “With Yentl Van Genechten, we have been able to sign a multifunctional player with a very good perspective. He has already worked with our coach Bernd Storck at KRC Genk and aims to establish himself in the Jupiler Pro League. We are convinced that he has the potential to do so and we want to support him in this. We heartily welcome Yentl Van Genechten in the KAS Eupen team.”
