News from the camp of Ukraine's rival in the Euro 2024 group. The main left wing defender of the Belgian national team Arthur Theate will miss the upcoming European Championship.
Recall, a fortnight ago, the 23-year-old footballer in another match for his club (Rennes) got an ankle injury. Theate still remains out of the training process and, according to the Belgian media, the head coach of the Belgian national team Domenico Tedesco has already decided that this defender will not be included in the application of the national team for Euro-2024.
It is reported that instead of Teate in the Belgian national team for the European Championship will be attracted Maxime De Kuiper from "Brugge". This 23-year-old footballer had a phenomenal season for his club: in 54 matches, despite his status as a defender, he scored 5 goals and gave 11 assists. At the same time, De Kuiper has never played for the national team of his country - in his asset only 10 matches for the "youth" (two goals, one assist).
But Teate is a player of the main squad of the Belgian national team. In all matches of his national team in the qualifying cycle of Euro 2024, he was in the starting line-up.
