Belgium have announced their 26-man squad for this summer’s European Championship.
Roberto Martinez has offered little by way of surprise with his selection and there is space for renowned stars Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku and Thibaut Courtois. Eden Hazard makes the squad despite his injury troubles this season.
