Belgian midfielder Joos van der Wiel has joined the team as a replacement for injured forward Yannick Carrasco, who is set to miss out on the upcoming season due to a knee injury.

Van der Wiel, who made his debut for Belgium in 2015, will be playing alongside experienced players such as Jérémy Mamelodi and Marco Verratti at the club. The 26-year-old has previously been linked with a move to Real Madrid but has opted not to join the Spanish giants.

Van der Wiel's arrival means that the team can now focus on improving their defensive control. The Belgian international has played regularly throughout the season so far and is known for his ability to play at both left-back and centre-back.

His experience and versatility have already helped the team to secure several victories during the campaign. However, he will need to work hard to establish himself in the first team once he returns from injury.

The Belgian midfielder has had a successful career so far, having represented France and the Netherlands at youth level before joining Belgium at the age of 18. He has won two caps for the national team and was part of the squad that qualified for the Euro 2016 tournament.

In addition to his footballing skills, Van der Wiel is also known for his leadership qualities. He has been a mentor to younger players and has been instrumental in developing them into leaders within the team.

The signing of Van der Wiel comes at a crucial time for the Belgian side. They are currently one point behind second-place Juventus in Serie A and are looking to make some changes to improve their chances of reaching the top flight next season. With Van der Wiel's arrival, they may be able to strengthen their defense and potentially improve their chances of achieving their ambition.
