Serious injury for Courtois: Mike Maignan also in Real’s sights

Tegola for Carlo Ancelotti and Real Madrid: Thibaut Courtois was seriously injured during Thursday’s session for the blancos and will have to be out for a long time.

The Iberian club confirmed that the Belgian goalkeeper has ruptured the cruciate in his left knee and will undergo surgery in the coming days. “After examinations carried out on our player Thibaut Courtois, he has been diagnosed with a tear in the anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee. He will be operated on in the coming days.”

An unexpected stop that blows up all the market plans of Real Madrid, which will now have to look for a goalkeeper of sure reliability for the upcoming season. A number of names are already circulating in Spain: the list of possible replacements includes AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan, already in the sights of Bayern Munich.

But the Rossoneri consider the French extreme defender to be incedible and are talking with agents about a possible contract renewal. A few weeks ago the Diavolo had turned down a €60 million offer.
