Real Madrid’s Belgian goalkeeper will miss the team’s upcoming matches due to injury.
Andrey Lunin can play from the first minutes in the main lineup of Real Madrid in the official matches of the 2024/25 season. The Ukrainian is preparing to take the field in an away game against Lille in the Champions League.
The head coach of Los Blancos has decided on the players in the team’s application for the match. Missing from the list is Madrid’s main goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, who is out due to injury.

According to The Athletic journalist Guillermo Rai, the exact time of Courtois’ recovery is still unknown. But Real Madrid expects him to return earlier than the end of the October vacation, which is determined by matches with the national team.
Thus, the Belgian will definitely miss two games: against Lille in the Champions League (October 2) and against Villarreal in La Liga (October 5).
Let’s remember that earlier Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid had a sparkling draw in the derby.
