Key players for Belgium at the 2018 World Cup
What's the story
Roberto Martinez's Belgium are one of the most exciting squads at this year's FIFA World Cup in Russia. Belgium's golden generation boasts some of the best players in the world right now. They will be looking to make the most of this talent by winning the trophy. Here are the top players for Belgium in Russia.
Central mid-fielder
Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne
Kevin De Bruyne is one of the most gifted players in the world right now. The 26-year-old has had a fantastic season with Manchester City, which saw him narrowly miss out on the Premier League 'Player of the Season' award. In 57 games this season, the creative mid-fielder has scored 13 goals while setting his team-mates up on 20 occasions.
Left-wing
Chelsea's Eden Hazard
The Chelsea forward has had a below par season, but there is no question about his quality. Belgium manager Roberto Martinez has built his team around Hazard, and the Red Devils are hoping the 27-year-old can create enough problems with his pace and trickery. Hazard has scored 18 goals and created 7 more this season.
Striker
Manchester United's Romelu Lukaku
Romelu Lukaku is the central figure of Belgium's attack. A fox in the box, Lukaku is a prolific goal-scorer and has proved it time and again. The 25-year-old has 31 goals and 7 assists this season. With the likes of Hazard and De Bruyne behind him to create chances, he should have plenty of goals to his name.
