Carlo Ancelotti confirms Thibaut Courtois return to Real Madrid

Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, injured and away from the field for almost nine months, will return to the field on Saturday during the La Liga match against Cadiz after two surgeries, his coach Carlo Ancelotti confirmed on Friday May 3. “ Yes, Thibaut is fine. He will play tomorrow (SATURDAY) after a long period of absence. (…) He can’t wait to play. We are delighted to see him return “, said Ancelotti about his starting goalkeeper, absent since his rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in early August, before the start of the championship. He should therefore play his first match of the season on Saturday against Cadiz at the Santiago Bernabéu, where Real, solid leader of the championship with eleven points ahead of FC Barcelona, ​​could be crowned if their Catalan rival loses or draws in the derby against Girona. In 2022, Thibaut Courtois was the great architect of the fourteenth Madrid Champions League, which allowed him to assert himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
