Lommel prepares for Belgian Pro League debut after promotion

Summary

Lommel, promoted to the Belgian Pro League after winning the playoffs last season, faces new challenges in their upcoming campaign.

Lucas Schoofs is expected to be vital after scoring 14 goals last season, but he has struggled to transition to the top flight.
