Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has sustained a muscle injury in the anterior rectus of his right quadriceps, raising concerns ahead of the club’s upcoming fixtures against FC Bayern Munich.
According to reports from Cope, the Belgian international could miss both legs of the highly anticipated tie.
The Madrid medical team will continue to monitor Courtois’ condition over the coming weeks to determine the severity of the injury and his potential return.
His absence would mark a significant setback for the reigning La Liga champions, who will rely heavily on their first-choice goalkeeper for the crucial Champions League encounter.
Real Madrid now faces the challenge of adjusting their squad while awaiting further updates on Courtois’ recovery.
The club has yet to confirm whether he will undergo additional tests or require treatment beyond rest and rehabilitation.
Fans and football analysts alike will be watching closely, as the goalkeeper’s fitness could play a pivotal role in Real Madrid’s hopes of progressing past Bayern in Europe’s premier club competition.
