News from the camp of Ukraine's rival in the Euro 2024 group. Head coach of the Belgian national team Domenico Tedesco announced the final application of his team for the European Championship. The list includes 25 footballers.
The list includes 25 footballers. Interestingly, the final list does not include Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, who missed almost the entire current season due to injuries.
But the reason for not calling Courtois to the national team was his conflict with head coach Tedesco. The specialist said that he would not take the goalkeeper to the European Championship due to injuries, adding that he had talked to the player himself about it. However, Courtois himself later called Tedesco a liar.

Defenders: Timothy Castagnier (Fulham), Zeno Debast (Anderlecht), Maxime de Kuiper (Bruges), Vaut Faez (Leicester City), Thomas Meunier (Trabzonspor), Arthur Theate (Rennes), Jan Vertonghen (Anderlecht).
