The main competitor of Andrey Lunin will play again for the Madrid club after a long break.
Thibaut Courtois is back on the field and will play again in an official match. The authoritative publication Marca assures us of this.
Journalists revealed the Real goalkeeper’s appearance in Saturday’s La Liga match against outsiders Cadiz.
It is not known how much playing time the Belgian will have. The head coach of the Madrid club, Carlo Ancelotti, is not yet sure that Courtois can play the whole match.
For now, the Belgian and Kepa Arrizabalaga plan to play half-time in the match of the 34th round. The Italian is considering which of the two goalkeepers to entrust with a starting spot, and who to let go at the break.
At the same time, Andrei Lunin is expected to play in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final with Bayern on Wednesday from the first minutes. However, there is no doubt that if they reach the final, Courtois will be in the starting lineup on June 1 at Wembley.
Let’s remember that this season Courtois suffered two knee injuries in a row and did not play for nine months. Therefore, he has yet to play an official match.
The Belgian was alternately replaced by Arrizabalaga and Lunin. The Ukrainian was the main goalkeeper and scored 27 goals in 29 matches and had 12 clean sheets.
We remind you that UEFA previously noticed Lunin’s super save in the game against Bayern.
