While this article focuses on the achievements of OH Leuven and the broader sports strategy of Khun Top and Jon Rudkin, it is interesting for Anderlecht followers to see how other Belgian clubs, such as OH Leuven, are developing on the European stage. The 2025-26 campaign marked a historic season for the Oud-Heverlee Leuven (OH Leuven) Women's team, highlighted by a maiden UEFA Women's Champions League (UWCL) run and continued dominance in Belgium.

OH Leuven made history as the first Belgian team to progress through qualifying and reach the knockout play-offs of the revamped UEFA Women's Champions League. This achievement underscores the growth and potential of Belgian women's football at an international level, a development also relevant for Anderlecht and the entire Jupiler Pro League.

OH Leuven's impressive European journey ultimately concluded in February 2026, when they bowed out to a strong Arsenal Women FC. The match, played in Borehamwood, England, showcased the Belgian team's competitiveness, even against a top European club. This was a significant experience for the club and a milestone for Belgian football.

These successes at OH Leuven stand in stark contrast to the challenges faced elsewhere in the sporting empire of Khun Top and Jon Rudkin. While their core business, Leicester City, has experienced fluctuating performances, the sister club in Belgium is making significant strides. Even the LCFC women's team faced a troublesome season but could still control their outcome and save themselves from relegation with a play-off game to play.

The strategy of Khun Top and Jon Rudkin, extending beyond just Leicester City, demonstrates that success is being achieved in other parts of their sporting business. OH Leuven's rise in the UWCL is clear evidence of a successful process and a promising future for the club, playing an important role in Belgian football.
