It looks like he was a late sub for Anderlecht in a recent friendly. Guessing (though I haven't pinned it down) he is on the Futures or some other squad if he is in fact officially on the books there. https://www.rsca.be/en/news/sporting-wins-friendly-match-against-zulte-0-1 A video that appears to be his gives him as a USA/BEL '06. He comes from the Philly setup among other stops. https://www.brotherlygame.com/2020/...co-real-jersey-fc-pa-classics-and-other-clubs https://www.transfermarkt.de/devon-decorte/profil/spieler/1223040
I just saw this. It looks like he has joined the Anderlecht Futures team. Looks like he was promoted from the U18 team during the winter break.

Played 81 min. In four matches, three starts, two completed matches, 1 goal. Not too bad way to break into a squad.
Since his arrival, he has played most matches. One more match tomorrow. I would assume that Anderlecht is pretty happy with his progress and that he will be back next season.
Former Philadelphia Union academy standout Devon De Corte (‘06) 🇺🇸🇧🇪 has signed his first professional contract with RSC Anderlecht! The Belgium U18 international scored the only goal in the final of Union U17’s GA Cup win in 2023 before moving abroad to join Anderlecht. https://t.co/iVxJgt77Hi— American Ultras Talk (@ameriultrastalk) June 28, 2024

27 Jul Anderlecht vs St. Truiden 14:45 EST On ESPN + Very interesting match to start the season. Anderlecht lost about 5 starters from last season squad. St Truiden lost 6 starters plus their manager. It is possible that De Corte could make the bench for this one, it seems more plausible that he ends up with the B team in the Challenger League.
Not on the bench, looks like he will be with Anderlecht Futures to start the season. There are still three weeks prior to their first match.
I’m looking at the thumbnail image from the first post. I wonder what “beste middenvelder” translates to?
Good news and not so good news. He has played both matches for Anderlecht Futures, started both and was captain for both. The bad news is that they lost both. The goal of the Anderlecht Futures, and those like them is to get youth players minutes on the field, and they are almost always the vastly younger team. Both Deinze and Patro Eisden had an average age much greater than Anderlecht Futures. But, I do not know how many YA's are the captain of their squads. That is nice.
31 Aug Anderlecht Futures vs Raal La Louviere 10:00 EST No on ESPN + Based on the season so far, De Corte should start.
FC Liege vs Anderlecht Futures 14 Sep 14:00 EST Not on ESPN + No points so far for the Anderlecht Futures, and Liege only has one. De Corte should get the start.
