The 23-year-old played 90 minutes for Belgium in the 1-0 defeat to Italy last week but has now left the national team group after reports in Belgium suggested he has suffered a small muscle tear in his foot.

It is understood Onana has returned to Villa for treatment and he could face a number of weeks on the sidelines.
