Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne will lead a rejuvenated Belgium side including a once-retired Axel Witsel at the European Championship next month. Coach Domenico Tedesco though informed that Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, who is returning from injury, would miss out. 

“He [Courtois ] knows his body. It is one thing to play three or four matches, but another to play the Euros,” said Tedesco. Up front, strikers Romelu Lukaku and Lois Openda were chosen at the expense of Michy Batshuayi.
