#x | Played in one or more friendlies which are not FIFA-recognised, either due to an excessive number of substitutions according to the Laws of the Game or because the request to have a match treated as official was sent too late to the FIFA. Three matches currently fall under this category, namely the friendlies against Romania on 14 November 2012, against Luxembourg on 26 May 2014 and against Czech Republic on 5 June 2017. These three matches are recognised by the Belgian FA and therefore included in this list. The number besides the '#' symbol denotes the number of disputed matches for each player. | ||
§x | Played one or more matches for Belgium at the 1920, 1924 or 1928 Summer Olympics, which are not counted as official matches by the Belgian FA and therefore not included in this list.
