Striker Jeremy Doku (20) has pulled out of Belgium’s squad for Friday’s European Championship qualifier against Sweden and next week’s friendly in Germany because of a muscle injury, the Belgian Football Association said on Tuesday.
Belgium trained for the first time on Tuesday under new coach Domenico Tedesco (37), who named Kevin De Bruyne (31) as the team's new captain.
De Bruyne takes over from Eden Hazard (32), who retired from international football after Belgium failed to get past the group stage at the World Cup in Qatar.
