Thibaut Courtois, returning to competition on May 4 against Cadiz, should keep Real Madrid’s goals well in the Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund on June 1. A choice which sounds like a hard blow for his replacement, Andriy Lunin.
Indeed, the Ukrainian shone in the absence of the Belgian, victim of a ruptured cruciate ligament and a torn meniscus in his knees. Two physical problems which kept him away from the field for most of the season.
Ancelotti will have the last word
Information corroborated by José Luis Sanchez de la Sexta on Sunday. Former Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas has also validated the anticipated choice of coach Carlo Ancelotti. The Spaniard has no doubts: “Courtois is number one. »
“It was last year and is again this year. I think he’s coming back very well. I understand Lunin, who had a magnificent season, and also contributed to Real Madrid reaching the final, but the decision is up to the coach,” judged San Iker on the sidelines of a charity padel tournament organized by the Clinica Menorca Foundation.
