Louis Saeys
Louis Saeys (26 November 1887 – 2 June 1952) was a Belgian football striker. He has played 24 times for the Belgian team and has the 7th most goals for Cercle Brugge. Saeys would probably have been Cercles leading top scorer of all time and player with most appearances if war had not broken out, which stopped the Belgian football competition for 5 seasons. Saeys played for no other team than Cercle throughout his career. He made his début for the first team in the 1903–04 season. Saeys would rapidly become one of the key players for the green and black side, despite his young age. Four years later, he would be called up for the first time to play for his country. In the 1910–11 season, Saeys became national champions with the green and black side. Louis Saeys was part of the team that played the cup final in 1913. The match was lost 3–2 against Union SG, after extra time. It was the first time that extra time was added, as the score after 90 minutes still was 2–2. ...
