The Purple Project

A three-part series broadcast globally on FIFA+ telling the unique story behind RSC Anderlecht Academy, one of the most successful in world football.

Anderlecht Academy
We hear from graduates such as Romelu Lukaku, Yuri Tielemans, Jeremy Doku and other players who give insights into the key role Anderlecht Academy played in their careers and how it helped them become international players for the Belgium National team.

Filmed by a local crew in Belgium we follow talented young players at the Anderlecht Academy as they dream of being offered their first professional contract and meet young players who have broken into the first team who are generating interest from clubs across Europe. The series looks at what makes the academy so successful from a football perspective and the important role education plays in developing the young players.
