Would Domenico Tedesco take Thibaut Courtois to the European Championship or not? That question continues to haunt the Red Devils. Although both men use clear communication, some hope that things will work out before the European Championship.
The issue with Courtois was also mentioned again during a press chat from Tedesco to German media. The national coach of the Red Devils kept it short about this, because he believes the situation is clear. “Everything has already been said about this theme. Every insider and every outsider can form a complete picture of it.”
Tedesco is not in the mood for a yes-or-no game. He therefore sticks to his position of recent months: Thibaut Courtois will not go to the European Championship. “I don’t want to play ping pong.” The tense relationship between the two is no secret. Courtois has already made it clear several times that he thinks Tedesco is a liar.
Sometimes a bit more subtle than other times. But Tedesco is not bothered by a question of conscience, he says. “I’m okay with myself.” Tedesco also refers to the interview that Courtois gave in December, when it was not yet certain that the goalkeeper would recover faster than expected.
The Real Madrid star already announced that he would not be available for the European Championship. According to Tedesco, he has given the Red Devils’ technical staff ‘planning certainty’. “We focus on the boys who are fit,” concludes Tedesco.
