Injured in the warm-up against Mallorca, Thibaut Courtois could miss several weeks of competition.
Dirty Sunday for Real Madrid. Beaten on the field of Mallorca (1-0), the Merengue also lost Thibaut Courtois, injured in the warm-up. Replaced by Lunin, the Belgian goalkeeper felt muscle discomfort and did not participate in the meeting. According to the Spanish press this Sunday evening, he could miss the Club World Cup, which starts next Wednesday for Real. Brand et Relief announces that the Madrid club would be pessimistic about the injury of Courtois who would almost forfeit for the competition scheduled in Morocco.
Objectif Liverpool
The White House goalkeeper could even miss the next three meetings of Real, which will play two La Liga matches (Elche and Osasuna) on his return from the World Cup. The objective for the club would be to recover its goalkeeper at 100% for the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League against Liverpool, scheduled for Anfield on February 21. After a final training, the Merengue will fly this Monday at 7 p.m. to Rabat where their first match against Al Ahly awaits them. In Spain, the Madrid media are almost unanimous. Courtois shouldn’t be on the trip.
