While central midfield is a position of strength for Belgium with Radja Nainggolan, Marouane Fellaini and Axel Witsel alternate options, Dembele was outstanding last season and is in contention to be a starter for them at Euro 2016.

Dembele bounced back from a difficult first season under Mauricio Pochettino’s management at Tottenham to be considered among their most important players, with the team missing him late in the season when he was suspended.
Euro 2016 is a chance for him to prove it on a big stage, and the good news is that he appears to have shaken off the injury which was troubling him earlier this week.
