After spending the week with his national teammates, the former Celtic Glasgow player in particular should fly to the Emirates in the coming hours to complete his transfer. A boon for the national team and Robert Martinez who had wanted to take Denayer back to his group for the League of Nations. Without guaranteeing him a place in the World Cup.
“It’s clear he won’t be in the team if he remains without a contract,” justified Roberto Martinez when announcing his selection. “It’s very unusual to have a player with his qualities in this situation. A player who is only 27 years old, who played in the Champions League, who played 7 matches with Belgium in our qualifying journey for Qatar. But OK if you don’t play and perform for a club, you can’t play for the national team. We want to help him reach his best level. That way, if he signs in the next few days, he can be ready to play again quickly.” The coach probably did not believe so well.
