On his chances of returning to France and signing for PSG, the Belgian recalled to RMC:  "I had contacts with PSG every year, but in my head everything was very clear.

"When I left Lille, I told myself I would never return to France for another club." 

He added, "For the people of Lille, I didn't want to play for PSG.

"It was a big club, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi was arriving, there were huge investments and the Champions League was guaranteed, but my dream was different."
