The Belgian Football Association has officially revealed its 26-player squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, under head coach Rudi Garcia. The Red Devils, drawn in Group G alongside Egypt, Iran, and New Zealand, will kick off their campaign against Egypt.
This squad blends experienced veterans with exciting young talents, featuring stars like Thibaut Courtois, Kevin De Bruyne, and Romelu Lukaku, alongside emerging players such as Senne Lammens (who earns his first major tournament call-up). Belgium aims to leverage their depth and quality in what promises to be a competitive tournament in North America.
The inclusion of reliable performers like De Bruyne and Courtois provides leadership, while dynamic attackers such as Doku, Trossard, and De Ketelaere
add creativity and threat. Defensive solidity comes from a mix of established names and promising centre-backs.
