CRAIG Bellamy hopes the part he played in turning Jeremy Doku into a Premier League superstar doesn't come back to haunt him tonight.

- MATHEW DAVIES

Wales boss Bellamy returns to Belgium for World Cup action admitting that the "challenging" Doku made him a better coach at Anderlecht.

Bellamy (circled, right) coached Doku during his time in Brussels before the player joined French club Rennes in a club-record €26 million move in October 2020 when just 18.

Doku went on sign for City in a £55.4m deal in August 2023 and has made more than 80 appearances, winning the Premier League and the Fifa Club World Cup in his first season at the Etihad Stadium.
