Courtois ruled out of Euro 2024 despite Real Madrid return

Belgium goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has been ruled out of Euro 2024 by Domenico Tedesco, despite making a return to the Real Madrid squad.

The 31-year-old has missed the entire season and needed another knee operation in March after a setback in his recovery.

Carlo Ancelotti said Courtois could make a full return for Madrid’s LaLiga match against Cadiz on Saturday, after naming him on the bench for their Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich on Tuesday.

Despite Courtois making a return to action before Belgium have to announce their squad for Euro 2024 in Germany, Tedesco was clear that he would not be chosen.
