Branko Strupar has one foot on the plane to Japan/Korea

Belgian coach Waseige

Derby County striker Branko Strupar has at least a couple of toes on the plane for the World Cup.
He has been preselected for the Belgian squad but it will be down to coach Robert Waseige to decide if Strupar is the man he wants.

Branko has only been back in Rams first team action since February 23rd but has proved his eye for goal has not deserted him during his very long absence from the game.

The final decision on places in the Belgian squad could depend on two friendly matches in May. First game will be against Algeria on May 14th and an away game against European and World Champions France on May 18th.
