Saelemaekers suffered a right flexor strain during his time with Belgium, La Gazzetta dello Sport informed.

Saelemaekers will be better assessed in a week, but he's set to miss three or four matches given the busy schedule. Zachary Athekame is his backup, but the coach could also decide to change the scheme, turning to a four-man defense and deploying Fikayo Tomori or Koni De Winter at right-back.
