Dedryck Boyata is going to the World Cup with Belgium this summer and you have to extend your congratulations to him for that.
The young defender can be rash at times but that is the point, he’s still a young defender.
And, with that said, he should only improve with the sheer pace and power he’s got on offer.
Certainly, working with one of the most talented squads at the tournament this summer will help him come on leaps and bounds and, you’d think, it should help him improve for us next season.
Let’s take a look at the reaction to the news:
🇧🇪 Dedryck Boyata has made the Belgium squad for the #WorldCup!

Dedryck is a potentially brilliant defender and this experience will be superb for him.
Some of our fans aren’t sold on him but I think we all see the potential and this should help him realise it.
Let’s see how he gets on in Russia.
