Relatives of Belgium's star players will be allowed to join them in Doha following the second group match of their World Cup campaign, but have been warned they must adhere to local Qatari customs and norms.
The Belgian FA has confirmed that the players' families will be staying at the Hilton Salwa Beach Resort, near the Red Devils' base camp, following Belgium's group match against Morocco on 27 November.
The team's head coach Roberto Martinez had already enabled the players' relatives to join them at the 2018 World Cup, as well as during last year's Euros, which had to be downsized due to the Covid-19 sanitary restrictions in place at the time.

Following a group match at their own European Championships earlier this year, the Red Devils' female counterparts, the Red Flames, also received a visit from family members.
The Belgian FA, on the other hand, intends to issue guidelines to its players and families on appropriate behaviour and attire to adopt in Qatar, with sources stating that the federation is "relying on common sense."
