Man City's Celtic loanee Denayer closing in on Belgium debut

Jason Denayer is being tipped to make his international debut for Belgium this weekend.

?The Manchester City defender, who is on loan with Scottish giants Celtic, has impressed so much in Glasgow that he could make his bow for the Rode Duivels.

?Marc Wilmots' Belgium side meet Cyprus in Euro2016 qualifying on Saturday and Denayer could partner City captain Vincent Company in central defence.

?The 19-year old said: "I would be honoured to play for my national team, and I will get a rest at the end of the season,.

?"With Celtic, we have had a heavy schedule, but you just have to deal with it. Of course, it is easier to cope when you are winning games and cups. Mentally and physically, you always feel better and ready for the next game."?
