International career of Radja Nainggolan

Radja Nainggolan was eligible to play for both Indonesia and Belgium due to his father’s ethnicity, but he finally picked the latter. He competed in the finals of the 2007–09 International Challenge Trophy, which his under-23 team won.

Nainggolan made his senior debut against Chile in the Kirin Cup on May 29, 2009.

On March 5, 2014, he scored his first goal for the Red Devils in a 2–2 friendly match with Côte d’Ivoire.

Radja Nainggolan was named to a standby list for the 2014 FIFA World Cup on May 13, 2014.

He did not, however, make the final cut.

During the UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying campaign, Nainggolan started for Marc Wilmots’ team.

He scored in a 4–1 win in Andorra and an away draw with Bosnia and Herzegovina as the team qualified for the tournament for the first time in 16 years.

In France, Nainggolan was chosen for the finals.

On June 13, he made his tournament debut, playing 62 minutes in a 2–0 loss to Italy.

Entry to National Team

In the January transfer market of 2010, Cagliari was the first to identify his talent and sign him. Nainggolan blossomed in Sardinia, making 131 appearances and scoring seven goals. Radja was called up to the Belgian national team on May 29, 2009, for a Kirin Cup match against Chile, after excelling in Italy.

On October 31, 2010, he scored his first Serie A goal against Bologna, a fantastic shot that left the goalkeeper powerless. On February 1, 2013, Roma received a taste of his footballing prowess as the Sardinians beat Roma 4-2, with the Belgian scoring the first goal.

Short biography of Radja Nainggolan

Radja Nainggolan was born in Antwerp, the son of Lizy Bogaerts, a Belgian of Flemish descent who raised him together with his three half brothers and twin sister, and Marianus Nainggolan, an Indonesian of Batak descent who was a member of the Batak Christian Protestant Church. When Radja was a child, his father abandoned the family.

After failing to be selected for Belgium’s forthcoming World Cup qualifiers, Nainggolan announced his retirement from international football on August 26, 2017, at the age of 29, and declared that he will be concentrating on his club career with Roma.

In November, however, he was chosen by new manager Roberto Martnez for friendlies against Mexico and Japan, only to withdraw due to injury.

Nainggolan retired from international football on May 21, 2018, after failing to be selected for the next World Cup in Russia.
