A Belgian family affair

It could be brotherly love at the World Cup for Belgium. In his provisional squad, Martinez named sibling pairings of two the Red Devils' finest footballing families- the Hazards and the Lukakus. 

Eden Hazard, often dubbed the country's most talented export, was listed alongside brother Thorgan who plays his club football with Borrussia Monchengladbach.

Manchester United forward Romelu Lukaku and his lesser known little brother Jordan, who plies his trade as a left-back with Lazio, were also named in the 28-man squad. 

Whether or not both duos will head to Russia for the World Cup will become clear on 4 June when the final 23-man squad is expected to be announced.
