The 32-year-old, who recovered from an injury in time to help Real Madrid secure the Champions League title in June, stated that the Belgian FA has accepted his decision along with the reasons behind it.

Lunin was the first choice for Real Madrid for the majority of the season after Courtois tore his cruciate knee ligament in a pre-season training session, and his performances had led many to believe that he would get the nod from Carlo Ancelotti in the Champions League final.

Courtois ruptured a left-knee ligament in August, just two days before the start of the season. The 32-year-old Belgian then also ruptured the meniscus in his right knee in March, when he was close to making a comeback. He was sidelined until the beginning of this month, when he started in a 3-0 win over Cadiz, a victory that secured Madrid's 36th Spanish league title.

While De Bruyne's presence was expected, Witsel's was a surprise after Tedesco dropped him from his first squad last year.

But Tedesco said Witsel's recent showings with Atletico Madrid convinced him the 35-year-old midfielder was the right choice.

Ancelotti said Friday that Courtois will play on Saturday when Madrid visits Granada in the league.

After Granada, Madrid will have three more Spanish league games before the big final in London.
