According to ESPN, Courtois was left out of the Belgium squad despite helping Real Madrid win the 2024 Champions League at Wembley Stadium.

The publication reports that the goalkeeper's commission came after he walked out on the Belgium squad last June after he was not named the team's captain after Eden Hazard retired.

While Courtois expressed his regret, his teammates are understood to have criticised his actions.

Courtois goes on holiday

After being omitted from the squad, Courtois has been spotted on holiday with his wife, Mishel.

Photos shared on social media showed the power couple having a well-earned holiday in Sardinia.

Courtois is understood to have hired a yacht for friends and family to enjoy the trip.

In one of the photos, the couple could be seen having a good time together.

The two lovebirds are understood to have begun dating in the summer of 2021 before they went public about their relationship public later that summer.

Meanwhile, Belgium will kick off their Euro campaign against Slovakia on Monday, June 17, before playing Romania and Ukraine.

The Belgium squad consists of three goalkeepers: Wolfsburg's Koen Casteels, Luton Town's Thomas Kaminski, and Nottingham Forest's Matz Sels.

Casillas chooses between Courtois and Lunin

Earlier, Sports Brief reported on Iker Casillas weighing in on Real Madrid's goalkeeping dilemma before the UEFA Champions League final on June 1.

With Courtois returning just in time for the UCL final, manager Carlo Ancelotti was staring at a tough decision to make.

Ancelotti eventually settled for the Belgian.
