**Sarah Thompson:** Thank you for joining us today, Gilbert. Your recent social media post about RFC Perwez has certainly caught the attention of soccer fans and the media alike. Can you tell us what prompted you to step in and help the club?
**Gilbert Bodart:** Thank you for having me, Sarah. It’s a tough situation, and I felt I had to do something. RFC Perwez is a club with a lot of potential, but thay’re facing some serious challenges right now. As someone who’s been involved in the sport for so long, I couldn’t just stand by and watch them struggle.
**Sarah Thompson:** The post you made on Facebook was quite urgent. You were looking for a free goalkeeper and two additional players. How dire is the situation for RFC Perwez at the moment?
**Gilbert Bodart:** The situation is critical. The club is preparing for the second half of the season,and without reinforcements,they risk forfeiting matches. That’s not just a blow to the team but to the entire community. Soccer is about more than just winning games—it’s about giving people hope and keeping the spirit of the sport alive.
**Sarah Thompson:** You mentioned in your post that RFC Perwez will have a new buyer in December. How does that factor into your decision to intervene now?
**Gilbert Bodart:** The new buyer is a positive development, but the club can’t afford to wait untill December. They need immediate help to stay competitive and avoid any further setbacks. My goal is to bridge the gap and ensure the team can continue playing at a high level until the transition happens.
**Sarah Thompson:** RFC Perwez is based in Walloon Brabant, a region that’s home to manny smaller clubs. Do you think their struggles reflect a broader issue in Belgian soccer?
**Gilbert Bodart:** Absolutely. Smaller clubs often face financial and logistical challenges that bigger teams don’t. They don’t have the same resources or support systems, which makes it harder for them to compete. But these clubs are the backbone of the sport—they nurture young talent and keep the local community engaged. If we lose them, we lose a part of what makes soccer so special.

**gilbert Bodart:** The response has been overwhelming, in a good way. Many people have reached out, offering their help or expressing their support. It’s heartwarming to see how quickly the soccer community comes together in times of need. I’m hopeful that we’ll find the players we need to keep RFC Perwez going.
**Sarah Thompson:** As a legendary figure in Belgian soccer, what message do you hope to send by stepping in to help RFC Perwez?
**Gilbert Bodart:** My message is simple: never give up. No matter how tough the situation seems, there’s always a way forward. I’ve been lucky to have a triumphant career,but I’ve also seen the struggles that come with the sport. If my involvement can inspire others to lend a hand or believe in the power of teamwork, then I’ve done my job.
**Sarah Thompson:** Gilbert, what’s your vision for RFC Perwez’s future?
**Gilbert Bodart:** My vision is for RFC Perwez to not just survive but thrive. With the right support and a bit of luck, I believe this club can become a shining example of resilience and determination. It’s not just about winning matches—it’s about building something that lasts, something that the community can be proud of.
