Belgium has announced the recall of leading scorer Romelu Lukaku for crucial Nations League matches against Italy and Israel as they strive to secure a place in the quarter-finals. Coach Domenico Tedesco expressed confidence in Lukaku's readiness, noting his importance as both a player and a leader, despite the striker having missed the first four matches of the competition due to fitness and mental readiness concerns. Belgium sits third in Group A2, needing two victories to advance, with Lukaku's experience and goal-scoring ability seen as vital for their success. The squad will be without captain Kevin De Bruyne and several injured players, including Youri Tielemans. Lukaku boasts an impressive record of 85 goals in 119 appearances for Belgium, and his last game for the national team was during the European Championship in Germany. The matches are scheduled for November 14 and 17, with the team aiming for a turnaround after three winless games.
