After failing to make an appearance for Standard Liège, one of Belgium's most successful clubs, Wilmots wanted to go abroad with U.S. Avellino 1912 in the Italian lower leagues but the transfer never happened. In 2018, he signed for
Ferencvárosi TC, the most successful Hungarian team, but failed to make an appearance there before joining
NK Triglav Kranj in the Slovenian top flight. He is the son of former Belgium international
Marc and elder brother of
RFC Liège Reno Wilmots. ==References==
