(Reuters) - Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has withdrawn from the Belgium squad for Tuesday's friendly against Saudi Arabia due to a hamstring injury, the Belgian Football Association (RBFA) said on Sunday. Courtois was called up by Belgium despite the problem but has failed to recover in time. "Thibaut Courtois has not recovered from his hamstring injury and left the group... Get well soon, Thibaut!" The RBFA said that Belgium manager Roberto Martinez is yet to decide on Courtois' replacement for the friendly with Liverpool's Simon Mignolet likely to start. The Belgian's injury makes him a major doubt for Chelsea's crucial Premier League match against Tottenham Hotspur on April 1 as both teams battle to finish in the top four.
