Alarm at Real Madrid due to Courtois
The goalkeeper of Real Madrid, Thibaut Courtois, has left the concentration of the Belgian national team, according to the Royal Belgian Football Association, due to a minor groin strain and will miss the friendly match that the team will play on Tuesday, March 28 against Germany in Cologne.
"Thibaut returned to Real Madrid as a precaution due to a minor groin strain," the Belgian national team posted on their social media. This action was taken as a precautionary measure, as it would not be a 'serious' injury. Initially, it was mentioned that the current coach, Domenico Tedesco, had given the goalkeeper a medical rest.
Courtois was involved in the start of the qualifying phase for the Euro 2024 against Sweden in Group F, winning 3-0. For this new era, the team is under the command of Domenico Tedesco, who arrived after the elimination in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup under Roberto Martinez.
Real Madrid is about to face Real Valladolid on Sunday, April 2 in LaLiga Santander, and then Barcelona, so coach Carlos Ancelotti hopes that the goalkeeper will arrive in optimal conditions for the matches.
