RAFC confirmed on Sunday that the Dutchman was dismissed following a disappointing end to the season, with Antwerp FC missing out on European qualification after three straight playoff defeats.
In a statement on the club website, Antwerp FC said it had “decided not to continue with Oosting next season” and ended the collaboration with immediate effect. Assistant Faris Haroun will oversee the final two matches of the campaign.
Oosting arrived at the Bosuil in November after spells with FC Twente and RKC Waalwijk. He initially enjoyed an unbeaten start in Belgium, but results deteriorated sharply in recent weeks as pressure mounted on the coaching staff. Belgian media reported that internal discussions about his future had intensified after Royal Antwerp’s European hopes faded.
