AS Roma midfielder, Radja Nainggolan, not included in the Belgium squad for the 2018 World Cup.
Belgian national team officially released a list of 23 players to compete in the 2018 World Cup on Monday (21/05/2018).
The name Radja Nainggolan is not included in the list.
That is, the Indonesian blooded players did not enter the main line of players who considered Belgian coach Roberto Martinez.
The indication of the removal of Nainggolan from the Belgian squad has been smelled since last August.
At that time, Nainggolan openly criticized Martinez in front of the media crew.
The former Piacenza player tells of Martinez's unfair treatment to him during the 2018 World Cup Qualifiers.
"He contacted me at 11:00 (an hour before the announcement of the squad.) He thought I would not focus on defending Belgium at the 2018 World Cup. I want to explode when I hear it," said Nainggolan told BolaSport.com from Goal.
Nainggolan and Martinez argued during the 2018 World Cup Qualifying phase. The tactics tactics assess the players are undisciplined.
"I'm a player who always gives me 120 percent of my best ability, I do smoke sometimes, that's right, I was crossed out because I smoke, but I'm not the only one," Nainggolan said.
"He also said I was often late for training sessions, but again I was not the only one," he said.

"With pain in my heart, I decided to end my international career, I did everything I could to be there (World Cup 2018) and represent my country, but being yourself can be very inconvenient," wrote Nainggolan.
On the other hand, Martinez mentioned the reason for not calling Nainggolan was because of tactical considerations.
"Radja is a player of great quality and was selected to be the best player of AS Roma, but I took this decision purely on account of the strategy," said the former Everton manager.
