Belgian coach: Lukaku is the right choice for not having surgery, and we can still score despite his absence

Belgian national team coach Garcia talked about Lukaku's injury in an interview.

Lukaku suffered a tendon injury in August this year, and finally Lukaku chose conservative treatment and is expected to be absent for four months. Coach Garcia said: "We hope Lucaku will come back as soon as possible, but he may not be able to use this year's World Cup qualifiers. When I talked to him, he was very active and fighting and had begun the recovery process."

Garcia continued: "I think Lucaku's choice (not undergoing surgery) is the right choice. At his age, he may be absent for a longer time if he undergoes surgery. Totti has had a similar situation in Rome in the past." Garcia has served as the head coach of Rome and coached Totti.

Garcia also said: "We will try to qualify for the World Cup without Lukaku, and sometimes he will visit us. Lukaku's absence will not have much impact on the way we play."

Next Belgium will play against Liechtenstein and Kazakhstan in the World Cup qualifiers. Garcia finally said: "We will have a lot of possession when facing a team that is defensively counterattacking, and Belgium often encountered similar situations in the past. Our offensive players must be in the right position. We have proved ourselves in the past, and now we must prove that we can score even if Lukaku misses the team, and we are capable of doing this."
