Nathan Ngoy

Nathan Ngoy developed at Standard Liège, where he became a reliable left-sided defender in the Belgian Pro League before earning a move to Lille in 2025. The 23-year-old is comfortable operating as a left-back or in a back three, offering pace and defensive discipline. His inclusion in the Belgium squad reflects the national team's need to build depth at fullback as the Golden Generation era closes. Ngoy is still establishing himself at Ligue 1 level and this World Cup represents a significant step up, but his physical profile and positional flexibility make him a useful squad option.
