Real Madrid Considering Tibo Courtois Sale Amid Saudi Interest

Thibaut Courtois, Real Madrid’s first-choice goalkeeper and a cornerstone of their success in recent years, could surprisingly be on his way out. According to PlanetaRealmadrid, the club is evaluating a lucrative offer from Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli.

While Courtois is considered indispensable, Real Madrid is reportedly tempted by the financial package on the table. Discussions are ongoing within the club, and no final decision has been made. However, Los Blancos are already exploring potential replacements to mitigate the loss. Two names have emerged as possible targets: Lucas Chevalier from Lille and Diogo Costa from Porto.

This development is particularly concerning for Ukrainian goalkeeper Andriy Lunin. Many expected that Courtois’ departure would elevate Lunin to the starting role, but it seems the club’s hierarchy is focusing on bringing in a new number one instead.

The situation remains fluid, and the coming weeks could be decisive in determining the future of Real Madrid’s goalkeeping department.
