Belgium NT coach Domenico Tedesco: “Saelemaekers is important for our future plans.”

Belgium NT coach Domenico Tedesco reaffirmed his trust in Roma attacker Alexis Saelemaekers who recently suffered a fractured ankle.

Tedesco spoke at a press conference from the Stadio Olimpico earlier today.

On Thursday, at 9:00 p.m., the “Red Devils” will challenge Luciano Spalletti’s Italy in the third matchday of the Nations League in Rome.

“Saelemaekers? After the operation we spoke. I found out about the serious injury and I immediately sent him a message.”

“He is a lad who is at the top of his game in terms of character, he can give us a lot on the pitch because he knows how to play in many roles. He will certainly be part of our plans going forward.”
