Belgium have announced a star-studded 26-man squad for the upcoming Euro 2020 tournament that begins in June.
The Red Devils manager Roberto Martinez released the list earlier this week, and it contains a host of star names with the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, and Romelu Lukaku included on the back of a successful season with their various clubs.
Real Madrid winger Eden Hazard also made to the list despite enduring an injury-plagued season in Spain.
Rennes hot-shot Jeremy Doku also made it to the list following what has been a stellar campaign in France. But there was no room for the injured VfL Wolfsburg goalkeeper Koen Casteeles or Liverpool fan favourite Divock Origi, who has endured a tough season at Anfield.
