TOP Oss have undergone plenty of changes to their side after finishing in 15th place last season under Bob Peeters. He lasted just one season in charge and has been replaced by Kristof Aelbrecht who was formerly at PSV Eindhoven as academy manager. Regulars Lion Kaak, Jan Lammers and Kay Tejan have departed the club and will all be big misses to the side. Tejan will be the biggest miss for the club after he scored 14 league goals last season - he has now joined Sheriff Tiraspol on loan. Going forward, Arthur Allemeersch and Delano Ladan will join Kyvon Leidsman and Justin Mathieu as centre-forward options. Goals seem to be lacking here and more offensive signings may be incoming. Oss have also added in midfield after losing depth options in Dean Guezen, Giovanni Buttner and Grad Damen. They have filled the midfield out by signing last term's loanee Thomas Beekman, Rick Dekker, Trevor David and Richie Musaba. The departure of regular Jan Lammers has been cancelled out by bringing in Brend Leefland and Milan Hilderink who can both play at centre-back. Dean van der Sluys will offer additional cover at left-back too. Oss look weakest going forward and goals may be difficult to come by if they do not strengthen this position before the window closes.

Target

Mid-table finish with an outside chance of making the play-offs.
