On October 4, Belgium announced a new squad list, and Lukaku was not included.
Coach Tedesco revealed that he originally wanted to call up Lukaku for this squad and even contacted the player in an attempt to persuade him, but Lukaku himself was not interested in playing in this month’s national team matches.
Lukaku made his national team debut in March 2010 and has played a total of 119 games for the “European Red Devils,” scoring 85 goals and providing 18 assists, leading the Belgian national team’s all-time scoring list by a wide margin.
According to the schedule, Belgium will face Italy and France in the Nations League this month.
