Thibaut Courtois, the Spanish goalkeeper of Real Madrid, responded to the rumor circulated by some during the recent period, that his announcement not to participate with his country, Belgium, in the European Nations Cup 2024, was due to the problem of not obtaining the leadership badge.
Thibaut Courtois previously announced that he was withdrawing from participating with Belgium in Euro 2024, due to the injury he suffers from a ruptured cruciate ligament, although he will be ready before the start of the tournament.
Courtois said during statements on Belgian channel VRT 1: “Everyone has an opinion on this subject, and this is normal, but I think that many people did not understand my point of view.”

The Belgium goalkeeper continued: “It was not related to the captaincy, but I am a human being and I have feelings, not a robot.”
Courtois concluded his speech by saying: “Even if I play with Real Madrid in matches before Euro 2024, this does not mean that I will be 100% ready to defend Belgium, but I will watch the national team’s matches as I currently do, and I hope that they go as far as possible in the tournament.”
