Belgium goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois says that if Belgium discover who is 'leaking' information about alleged bust-ups within their squad then they will immediately be banished.
The Red Devils' shock 2-0 World Cup defeat to Morocco seemingly led to dressing room unrest within the camp, with reports stating that Romelu Lukaku was forced to intervene in a row between experienced pair Kevin De Bruyne and Jan Vertonghen.
Goalkeeper Courtois was deemed by many to be at fault for Morocco's first goal, with a wide free-kick from Abdelhamid Sabiri beating him via a slight touch from Morocco defender Romain Saiss.
The Real Madrid stopper was furious about the reports of unrest after the match though, and speaking at a press conference on Tuesday he slammed those responsible.
“The problem is that too many lies are spread. A situation is described that doesn't exist," said Courtois.
"As a group, we need to avoid that negativity. Everything was clarified yesterday. Everyone has openly expressed their opinion.
"Now we have to take action on the field. It's good that we had a group conversation. We said what we thought to each other. We have to be honest with each other and fight for each other on the pitch."
When it was put to Courtois that there could be a mole within the Belgium camp, he rather chillingly warned: "If we find out who sent this [information to the press], it will be his last day at the national team."
Skipper Eden Hazard also slammed the supposed leaks, insisting that Belgium's group of players - many making up their supposed 'Golden Generation' - remain resolutely together ahead of their attempts to reach the last-16 in their final group game against Croatia..
“We had a good talk among the players. A lot has been said," explained Hazard.
"We talked for an hour about good things and less good things. Now we want to win against Croatia. We now have two days to prepare. We have to be ready.
"Nothing happened in the dressing room. Only the coach spoke. I spoke to Kevin De Bruyne, he does believe in the group.”
De Bruyne had hit the headlines when he sensationally dismissed Belgium's hopes of winning the World Cup prior to the Morocco game.
“No chance, we’re too old. I think our chance was 2018," he told The Guardian.
"We have a good team, but it is ageing. We lost some key players. We have some good new players coming, but they are not at the level other players were in 2018. I see us more as outsiders.”
Belgium will qualify for the last-16 if they can beat Croatia on Thursday, and they will top the group in Morocco draw or lose against Canada in Group F's other game.
