The first sign of concern came from the absence of an official medical report. The club has not yet detailed the exact extent of the problem, but the context raises worry about the goalkeeper’s importance in this stretch of the season.

The episode occurred in the match against Manchester City, at the Etihad Stadium, when Thibaut Courtois could not continue after halftime. At Real Madrid, the Belgian goalkeeper, a fixed starter, suffered a right adductor overload that prevented him from continuing on the pitch.

To cover the absence, Andriy Lunin came in, a substitution already anticipated at halftime: the Ukrainian had been warming up during the break alongside the goalkeeper coach Luis Llopis, anticipating the move.

Courtois, a key piece in the team’s setup, remains pending evaluation in the coming hours. The incident creates uncertainty within the Madrid squad, which will have to wait for further tests to know whether the goalkeeper will be available in upcoming decisive matches.
