Career
After a few years as a youth coach with KAA Gent and FC Destelbergen, he started his managerial career with second division KSV Sottegem in 2010. After spending three years in charge of Belgian Fourth Division A club K.F.C. Eendracht Zele, Fraeye had a short stint as an assistant to head coach José Riga at Charlton Athletic. By his own account, he then continued to work for Charlton's owner, Roland Duchâtelet as a scout for AD Alcorcón. In October 2015, he was announced as head coach at Charlton, quitting the job he then held at Belgian third division club, VW Hamme. He was sacked on 13 January 2016, having won just two out of his fourteen matches while in charge.
In February 2016, Fraeye was appointed head coach of Belgian Second Division team Lommel United, with the initial aim of preventing relegation. Fraeye succeeded in keeping the team at the second level, but was sacked the next season in the beginning of October following a 3-6 home loss to Tubize, which dropped Lommel United to last place.
