Real Madrid announced on Monday that Thibaut Courtois and Fede Valverde have suffered injuries that have ruled them out of the current international break with Belgium and Uruguay, respectively.
Courtois injured his right calf muscle, while Valverde injured his right thigh, forcing him to leave the Teresa Rivero Stadium in the final minutes of Real Madrid’s recent match against Rayo Vallecano.
Real Madrid did not specify the duration of the duo’s absence in their official statement, simply saying that their return depends on the speed of their recovery.
According to Marca, Courtois and Valverde’s injuries are not serious, and their absence will be limited to the international break.
Initially, both Courtois and Valverde are expected to be fit for the Elche match, scheduled for November 23, in La Liga.
It is worth noting that Real Madrid has been suffering from several absences due to injuries in the recent period, the latest being Franco Mastantuno, who was injured in his groin muscle and the date of his return to the field remains unknown.
