LONDON: Romelu Lukaku will miss Belgium’s friendly in Ireland this weekend because of a groin problem. Lukaku missed a Europa League match last Thursday because of a recurring hip injury, then played 85 minutes on Sunday in Roma’s 1-0 win against Sassuolo in Serie A.
Belgium said on Tuesday that Lukaku was not fit to face Ireland “due to a slightly overloaded groin.”
Belgium meets Ireland on Saturday in a warmup for the European Championship. It will then take on England next Tuesday. Agencies
