“11.5 million Belgians. 26 names. 1 goal. These players are standby: Kaminski, Saelemaekers, Sambi Lokonga, Heynen, Foket, Januzaj, Mechele, J. Lukaku, Vanheusden, Verschaeren & De Ketelaere,” Belgian Red Devils tweeted while announcing the squad list.

Earlier this month, European football’s governing body UEFA increased the squad lists from 23 players to 26 for Euro 2020 to “mitigate the risks of teams facing a shortage of available players” as coronavirus continues to rage.

According to UEFA, 23 players shall remain the maximum number permitted on the match sheet for each individual match (in accordance with Law 3 of the IFAB Laws of the Game permitting a maximum of 12 substitutes to be named for A-national team matches), including three goalkeepers.
