Who is Jimmy De Wulf?
Jimmy De Wulf is a Belgian professional football player. De Wulf plays as a central defender.
De Wulf's career took off when Belgian top teams Club Brugge and Standard Liège discovered him at the age of 12, playing for his local team SV Blankenberge. Given the fact that Liège was lying much further away from Blankenberge than Bruges, De Wulf chose to join Club. During his youth, De Wulf has been selected many times to play for the national team.
When De Wulf reached the age of 18, he was offered a contract for 5-year. Despite the promising prospects, De Wulf did not play much for Club Brugge under the coaching of Trond Sollied, and he was loaned for six months to Tromsø IL. At the end of his loan, Tromsø wanted to buy De Wulf, but Club halted his transfer. De Wulf, tired of not playing for the first team, decided to put pressure on the management. Eventually, De Wulf was loaned for one season to Cercle Brugge, thanks to the good relations between the chairmen of both teams. When the season ended, De Wulf was definitively transferred to Cercle for a fair price.
A minority of Cercle Brugge fans responded negatively to this transfer.
