The best books about the History of the Belgian National Team.
These are the books that I have chosen:
Book I
‘Le Dictionnaire des Diables Rouges’
Authors: Bruno Govers, Pierre Bilic, Claude Henrot, Bruno Dubois, Pierre Danvoye
Published in 2000.
Written Language: French
This is absolutely the best book written about the Belgian national Team.
This book has a brief biography and profile of some of the historical players, but also has statistics on every player.
The lineups and players club information of not Belgium but its opponents are shown for every single match.
