Rudi Garcia has announced his first selection as national coach. On Monday, the Red Devils will gather at the Proximus Basecamp in Tubize, where the preparation for the play-off games in the UEFA Nations League against Ukraine can begin.

A little less than two months after his appointment, Rudi Garcia's first selection is known. The Frenchman has called up 26 players for the upcoming two legs against Ukraine. The Devils are playing for a spot in the A-league of the Nations League. In a home-and-away match, it will be determined whether the Belgians maintain their position at the highest level.

On Thursday, March 20, the Devils will travel to Murcia, Spain, for the first match. The second leg will follow on Sunday, March 23, at the KRC Genk Arena. Tickets for that international fixture are still on sale.
