Kevin De Bruyne was one of 17 Belgium internationals to be awarded his UEFA A License on Tuesday - three years after the country's FA launched a coaching initiative.
Belgium boss Roberto Martinez came up with the idea to encourage star players to complete their UEFA coaching badges on international duty following the World Cup in 2018, with the idea being implemented 12 months later.
De Bruyne, 30, and nine other current Belgium stars have completed the UEFA A course and were awarded their badges at a ceremony on Tuesday. The Manchester City midfielder has previously expressed a desire to follow in Pep Guardiola's footsteps.
