Belgium coach Roberto Martinez admits Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne is still struggling with an ankle injury suffered at the Euros.
Martinez doesn't expect De Bruyne to face Arsenal this weekend.
Speaking about De Bruyne's availability going forwards, Martinez said: "Kevin is not available [for Manchester's clash with Arsenal].
"As you know he had some minutes against Tottenham. But after that game he still felt some pain [in the ankle].
"He's taking a different route now. He's not gonna be playing this weekend. The idea is to see how his injury progresses.
"It's only right that we work together for the well-being of the player. Kevin is working really hard behind the scenes to get fully fit and to be ready for a demanding season.
"At the moment he's not 100 per cent fit."
