Thibaut Courtois left the Belgium national team following a conflict with former head coach Domenico Tedesco. However, with the Red Devils recently appointing a new manager, speculation grew about the Real Madrid goalkeeper’s return—which is now confirmed.
Details: Courtois has officially announced his comeback, admitting that he missed playing for Belgium during his time away from the squad.
Quote: “I missed playing for Belgium… It’s been a year and a half, now I’m ready,” Courtois said in an interview with Koora Break, as quoted by Fabrizio Romano.
Reminder: Belgium’s new head coach, former Napoli boss Rudi Garcia, previously made it clear that he wanted Courtois to return to the national team.
