The Spanish newspaper “Marca” said that Thibaut Courtois, the star goalkeeper of Real Madrid, may participate with his team if it reaches the final of the Club World Cup 2022.
Courtois had felt some pain during the warm-up for the Real Madrid match against Real Mallorca in the 20th round of the Spanish League.
It was decided that the 30-year-old would be absent from the meeting, as he preferred not to take risks.
Courtois also failed to fly with Real Madrid to the Moroccan capital, Rabat, where the team will compete in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup against Al-Ahly of Egypt (Al-Qarn Club).
The owner of 100 international matches in the Belgian national team shirt underwent medical examinations, which confirmed that his injury was not serious.
According to Marca, Courtois’ chances of catching up to the final, if his team qualifies, will depend on his recovery over the next few days.
In the event that the son of the city of Berri finds himself in a better physical condition, he will go Thursday or Friday to Rabat to join the Real Madrid mission.
