Courtois missed another Real Madrid training session and risks missing the Copa del Rey
Thibaut Courtois did not take to the field in the last La Liga match against Leganes and seems likely to miss the Copa del Rey clash with Sociedad.
Details: According to Marca, the Belgian goalkeeper did not participate in Real Madrid's training session on Monday, March 31. It is most likely that Courtois will not play in the return leg of the Copa del Rey against Sociedad. Ukrainian goalkeeper Andriy Lunin, who guarded the net in the game against Leganes, will once again be in the starting lineup.
Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti responded to the question about who will take the goalkeeper position in the Copa del Rey final if the Madrid team advances.
Quote: "Yes... We'll see. Lunin and Courtois can play, and if both are injured, then Fran Gonzalez will step in. And if we don't reach the final, then none of the three will play," he stated.
It was previously reported that the Madrid club is open to considering offers for Lunin. If the Ukrainian goalkeeper wishes to leave, Real Madrid won't hold him back. Andriy himself is keen to play for a team where he can be the first-choice goalkeeper.
Reminder: Real Madrid has already sent an official offer to the representatives of Trent Alexander-Arnold. Negotiations on the details of the deal are ongoing, and all parties are confident that an agreement between the player and Real Madrid will be reached.
