Unless the situation turns around, Thibaut Courtois will not be the Belgian team’s goalkeeper for Tuesday night’s match in Estonia. The Real Madrid goalkeeper was upset following a decision by the Belgian coach.
Domenico Tedesco, the new Red Devils coach, finds himself having to solve a hell of a problem. Indeed, on Saturday evening, Thibaut Courtois, the indestructible goalkeeper of Belgium, warned him that he would not be scheduled to prepare for the qualifying match for Euro 2024 on Tuesday evening in Estonia. The Belgian goalkeeper is not injured, and he has no sporting appointments on his program. If Thibaut Courtois made this decision, with the risk of a sanction, it is because he is furious at not being 100% captain of the selection, the coach preferring to turn the armband when Kevin de Bruyne. Believing that he deserved to be captain against Estonia, which would not have been the case, the Real Madrid goalkeeper therefore decided to skip this meeting.

And the Belgian Football Federation has confirmed that the 31-year-old will not be traveling to Estonia. What inevitably annoy the supporters of the Belgian team, and amuse those of the French team who know what Thibaut Courtois is capable of when he is not happy. After the elimination of the Red Devils by the Blues at the 2018 World Cup, Courtois expressed his disgust, believing that Belgium deserved to be in France’s place. The famous seum by Thibaut Courtois was born, and obviously the passing years do not change anything in the matter. We must now know if Domenico Tedesco will sanction the one who is clearly one of the best goalkeepers on the planet. At least when he’s playing.
