Romelu Lukaku has not yet been ruled out of the World Cup, according to team officials, despite Belgium coach Roberto Martinez’s claim that the loss of the “irreplaceable” striker from the tournament would require his team to change its style of play. After just recently returning from two months on the sidelines, Lukaku is dealing with a thigh injury and is questionable for the finals in Qatar, with Belgium’s tournament-opening match against Canada on November 23.
