Leading Real Madrid star could be set for a return to international duty | OneFootball

The chances of Real Madrid star Thibaut Courtois returning to international duty with Belgium have today greatly increased.

This comes amid confirmation that Red Devils head coach Domenico Tedesco has been dismissed.

Tedesco, for his part, had long had a strained relationship with goalkeeper Courtois, ultimately culminating in the latter withdrawing himself from international duty for the duration of the tactician’s time in charge.

As per a statement across the Belgian FA’s official social media platforms on Friday, though:

‘The national team ends its chapter with Domenico Tedesco. Thank you, Domenico, for your commitment and passion over the last two years. We wish you all the best for the future!’

As much is expected to open the door for an imminent return to the Red Devils’ setup for Courtois.

The shot-stopper, in fact, could even be called up for his country’s next round of fixtures, in the Nations League late in March.
