Belgium’s World Cup 2026 Ambition: Can Doku and De Bruyne Ignite a New Golden Era?
Belgium enters the 2026 World Cup with a blend of fading ‘golden generation’ stars and exciting new talent, led by offensive powerhouses Kevin De Bruyne and Jérémy Doku. Coach Rudi Garcia prioritizes attack with a four-defender system, but faces challenges with Romelu Lukaku’s match fitness and a less experienced defense.
Despite this, the Red Devils qualified undefeated and are banking on Doku’s burgeoning talent and the steady presence of Thibaut Courtois to navigate a winnable group and make a deep run in the tournament.
