INJURIES - INTERVIEWS Will we see the comeback of Andy Najar and Henry Onyekuru with the first team on Sunday? Hein Vanhaezebrouck does not rule it out, especially Najar makes a good chance. "Najar is clearly further than Onyekuru, he is closer to a selection", said the coach this afternoon.


Najar and Onyekuru played for the first time with the U21 on Tuesday. "Both have passed the game well", Vanhaezebrouck says. "The next day they could participate in the training session, Najar shorter because he had played longer on Tuesday. We had expected that Najar would pass the test, he has been training with the group for some time and participated in competition forms."

"For Onyekuru, this game came very quickly, he had not participated in any kind of competition forms yet, Onyekuru had to overcome the barrier of caution. He still had some fear. It is by playing games that you realize you should not be afraid anymore. On training we now see that it goes more smoothly. "

Whether or not we will see Najar and Onyekuru on Sunday in the match selection, the coach did not want to tell. "We have to decide that tomorrow after the last training."
