Belgium’s all-time leading goal scorer, Romelu Lukaku, is poised to make a return to action against England in a friendly clash at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday. Lukaku’s presence adds significant firepower to Belgium’s attack, which struggled to find inspiration in a lackluster 0-0 draw against Ireland in their previous outing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Having missed the match against Ireland due to a groin injury, Lukaku has fully recovered and participated in training sessions, as confirmed by manager Domenico Tedesco. Tedesco also revealed that goalkeeper Koen Casteels will remain sidelined due to a shoulder injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With Lukaku’s return, Belgium aims to reignite their attacking prowess, especially in the absence of the creative influence of the injured Kevin De Bruyne. Tedesco emphasized the importance of creating more scoring opportunities and adopting a bold and positive approach against England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We want to create more opportunities than against Ireland. We need to be brave, with open and positive football,” Tedesco asserted. He sees the match against England as an ideal test for his team at the highest level, despite acknowledging England’s potential absences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
