Thibaut Courtois, the first goalkeeper of Real Madrid and one of the most recognizable faces of the Belgian national team, expressed a positive view on the appointment of Mark van Bommel as the new bondscoach of Belgium to replace Rudi Garcia. According to a statement obtained by Het Laatste Nieuws while Courtois was in attendance at Tomorrowland, he said he did not know Van Bommel personally but admired his story in Antwerp and his extensive career as a player at big clubs and the Netherlands national team. "I don't know him personally," Courtois said at the festival venue, adding that "I look positively at the possibility of a conversation." Such talk is being awaited by the 34-year-old goalkeeper, who also announced that he is now pain-free after the injury he picked up in the World Cup quarter-final against Spain. After the World Cup, Courtois expressed the thought of a sabbatical; he told Het Nieuwsblad that he may stay in Madrid during the Nations League campaign, to fully recover. He also made it clear that if the team allows it, it could pave the way for other goalies like Senne Lammens, Mike Penders or Maarten Vandevoordt to play — an option he's willing to consider if the team accepts.

Meanwhile, in Sclessin where Standard Luik played against Juventus in a friendly, Van Bommel's name also appeared in the conversation on the local stage. Loïs Openda's situation is also mentioned here: the 26-year-old attacker, who previously played for Vitesse, is reported to be close to finalizing his loan transfer to Olympique Lyon. In the said friendly, Openda remained on the bench for the visitors as he hopes to renew his career in Ligue 1. In his remarks, Openda emphasized the importance of regular playing time: "It's important to get game minutes again. I just want to play and score goals. Last season didn't go as expected, so I need to develop and play a lot to be in the national team again." This is the former Vitesse forward's clear aim as his possible move to Lyon approaches. These events — Van Bommel's appointment, Courtois' condition after the World Cup, and Openda's potential transfer — are part of the early stages of rebuilding and evaluating the Belgium national team as the next international window enters and the new era under a new coach. It will remain important for the new management of the national team to get the word out with veterans like Courtois and ensure that young comeback hopefuls like Openda are given the right opportunity to show their quality again.

What's next

Courtois is expected to hold talks with Van Bommel to discuss his role in the team and his plans for the future. With his recovery from injury, Courtois may consider a sabbatical to rest and focus on his health, which could pave the way for other goalkeepers to play in the Nations League campaign.
