Real Madrid announced in an official statement that Thibaut Courtois was injured again, and with it the end of his season.
The Belgian goalkeeper suffered a cruciate ligament tear before the start of the season, but he has just recovered from it and was scheduled to return to matches after the international break.
But it appears that Courtois injured himself again in training, and this time his injury is a tear in the inner meniscus of his right knee.
According to AS newspaper, this injury will keep Courtois out of the field for at least two months, which means that the season is already over for him before it begins.
Real Madrid doctors are still confused about whether to perform surgery or rely on a different treatment to treat the cartilage tear.
Thus, Carlo Ancelotti’s dreams of relying on Courtois were dashed during the difficult period that awaits Real Madrid this season, represented by the quarter-finals of the Champions League and the struggle for the La Liga title.
