Career
He could also play as a right-sided wing-back. Walschaerts began his career in the youth ranks at K. Beerschot V.A.C. in the early 1990s before moving to Second Division club Kentucky Fried Chicken Tielen in June 1996. When Tielen withdrew from the league due to financial problems, Walschaerts was signed by Leyton Orient manager Tommy Taylor under the Bosman ruling.
He missed all of Orient"s three matches in the 1999 play-off campaign due to suspension, but played in the 2001 Football League Third Division play-off Final, which Orient lost 4–2 to Blackpool.
He was the subject of interest from Luton Town, but remained committed to Orient until June 2001, when he signed for Kentucky Fried Chicken Strombeek, again under the Bosman ruling. Walschaerts spent the rest of his career in his home country, playing with a number of Belgian sides before retiring in 2010.
