News about Thibaut Courtois

You don't have to rule out footballers and their WAGs getting married, because it's not every day you hear about a bride'kidnapping her wedding guests. David de Gea is the only one who asks. The former Manchester United goalkeeper and his partner Edurne Garcia carried their wedding guests away in many vans, without having any advance warning to make their 'unforgettable day' a memorable one.'

The latest international break may be over, but the narratives and discussions surrounding various national teams are only likely to rise in the run-up to Euro 2024. The 24 teams that will be competing in Germany this summer have been confirmed at the conclusion of Tuesday's play-off finals. Among the bookies' favorites to win the tournament are France, England, Germany, and Portugal, which will begin in Munich on June 14th.

Thibaut Courtois underwent successful surgery on a torn meniscus injury in his right knee sustained during a training session on Tuesday. Since suffering from an ACL injury to his left knee early in the season, the Real Madrid star was expected to return to first team action in August. But the 31-year-old suffered a major setback which is expected to rule him out for two months, making it highly likely he will miss the remainder of the season

Thibaut Courtois has sustained a new injury blast just days after returning to training after a long absence. In August, the Real Madrid keeper sustained an ACL injury in his left knee. Courtois returned to full fitness last week as he started his recovery, with the 31-year-old retaining hopes of playing a key role in Real and Belgium's run-in.

Thibaut Courtois has accused Belgium coach Domenico Tedesco of lying. After being left snubbed for captaincy against Austria and Estonia last year, Tedesco said he is doing everything he can to bring Courtois back to the national team setup. Courtois replied to Tedesco's latest remarks by releasing three Pinocchio emojis, referring to the coach as a liar.

PETE JENSON, SPAIN: If Real Madrid sign Kylian Mbappe this summer (and PSG are committed to it happening), then the Spanish team will have the world's best under-25 team, one that may dominate the game for a decade. It will be the result of years of focusing the transfer market more efficiently than every other club in world football. First came the significant change in philosophy from signing the biggest names for the highest price, something that has resulted in Paris Saint Germain's biggest mistake in ten years of struggling to win the Champions League.

Thibaut Courtois has confirmed that he will miss Belgium's Euro 2024 campaign due to his knee injury sustained in August. When an MRI scan revealed the former Chelsea goalkeeper had suffered an ACL tear back in summer, the 31-year-old left the training pitch in tears. Dr Manuel Leyes, the Real Madrid medical staff's chief, operated him a week later and announced that he would not be out for the entire 2023-24 campaign.

Since being nominated for the Best FIFA Women's Goalkeeper award, Mary Earps could add to her fine season. The 30-year-old helped the Lionesses reach the World Cup final, where she saved a penalty on a 1-0 loss to Spain. She received the FIFA Best award last year and is hoping to keep the honor after being named England Women's Player of the Year and in the Women's Super League team of the year.

CHRIS WHEELER: Erik ten Hag leapt to Andre Onana's defence on Friday, insisting that Manchester United's under-fire goalkeeper should continue as his No. 1 as his No. 1. Despite fresh scrutiny over his results in the Champions League draw with Galataray in Istanbul on Wednesday, where he was chastised for all three goals United conceded, Onana will maintain his position against Newcastle on Saturday night at St James' Park. Despite Ten Hag's that none of his players are "undroppable," he would avoid any attempt to fire Onana.

To finish as champions of Group C on Wednesday night and guarantee a match against a second place team in the Round of 16, the LaLiga leaders need only a point against Napoli on Wednesday night to be crowned champions of Group C. Carlo Ancelotti will have to do so without a host of his first team members, including Luka Modric, Vinicius Jr., Eduardo Camavinga, Aurai Tchouameni, and Kepa Arrizabalaga. Eder Militao, Thibaut Courtois, and Arda Guler will be out of place for long ees.

In the qualifiers against Georgia, the Barcelona star was clutching his knee and subsequently leaving the field in tears. Barcelona announced on Tuesday morning that his right knee surgery went well.

Betis do not want David de Gea. After rumors that they were recruiting the former Manchester United and Spain goalkeeper earlier this week, the club has briefed at least that. Perhaps it isn't all surprising. In the highly rated Rui Silva and the massively entertaining Claudio Bravo, they have two top keepers. The former is just recovering from injury, and the former is out for four weeks. However, both players will be fit and keen to play next week, so there is no room for a third senior keeper. Despite Betis' that he is a free agent, nobody seems to care about him.

In the latest EA FC 24 game, only two Premier League players have been ranked in the top ten of the 100 top-rated players, with England lacking just one representative. Overall ratings are given a score of up to 99 out of the best players in the world given scores in the 90s, but also being extremely difficult to collect. A number of players have already been notified ahead of the game and the first of the new EA FC rebranding, a number of players have had their scores revealed before the game is announced on Friday, September 29.

Last month, the Spaniard joined Real Madrid on loan, with Los Blancos needing to replace Thibaut Courtois after the Belgian ruptured his ACL. Kepa issued a barely veiled critique of Boehly's spending spree on Spanish radio COPE, saying he did not have to worry twice about leaving Chelsea. 'I thought it was time for a change of scenery,' he said. I wanted to stay, but I felt that the scheme wasn't the right one.'

Arsenal No. 1 Ramsdale is in contention for the coveted gong next month, and the world's top stopper will be named on the 10-man list. Andre Onana, Emiliano Martinez, and Ederson, all top-flight keepers, are competing for the award. They're joined by Mike Maignan, Yassine Bounou, Brice Samba, Thibaut Courtois, Dominik Livakovic, and Marc-Andre ter Stegen. The new holder of the Yashin Trophy is Real Madrid's Courtois.

For those that are involved in the transfer process, it could be a wild ride, but for those who are not on the track, it may be even more sobering. Not everybody, of course, will be thrust into the spotlight thanks to jaw-dropping, multi-million-pound transfers, with a number of players still free agents and therefore available for absolutely nothing even after the summer window was closed. In fact, there are veteran internationals with hundreds of appearances for club and country as well as household names who have fallen off the radar in recent years, many of whom have been buried in the bargain binge, possibly plotting their routes back to the sport. If you were released by your previous clubs before the end of the season, clubs around the world will be able to sign unattached players after the deadline. This is the case for the majority of the players on the market, offering them a glimmer of hope. And so, Mail Sport looks at ten of the best players looking for a new home as prospective suitors circle and weigh up these cost-effective alternatives.

Thibaut Courtois (pictured) of Real Madrid has undergone surgery on a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, according to the La Liga team. When an MRI scan revealed the ACL tear, the 31-year-old left the training pitch in tears a week earlier. Dr Manuel Leyes operated him under the Real Madrid medical team's care. In a tweet, Real said: 'Courtois will begin his recovery process in the coming days.'

After finishing a loan move from Chelsea, Kepa Arrizabalaga was unveiled at Real Madrid as their next celebrity, but the Spaniard wasted no time in requesting a permanent contract at the end of the season. The ACL break by Thibaut Courtois on the onset of the new season left Los Blancos reeling, with the need to replace their No. 1 stopper before the summer transfer market opens. They moved to Chelsea in search of a top-class pair of hands, with Arrizabalaga, the world's most expensive goalkeeper, losing his starting position to new Blue Robert Sanchez.

Los Blancos is short-stocked in the goalkeeping department due to the injury to Courtois, with 24-year-old back-up Andriy Lunin as the only other option, so Kepa is likely to join the team straight away.

PETE JENSON OF MADRID: Some players shrink when they put on the iconic white shirt on, but Bellingham came out to bursting, even with the No. 5 branded by Zinedine Zidane on the back. While Diario AS headlined with 'Bellingham is the boss,' one Spanish commentator said, 'It's like Zidane has returned.' He had a side-foot volley into the ground that looped over keeper Unai Simon, which was the subject of Rodrygo's opener. Carlo Ancelotti's team's only bad point was a cruciate ligament tear sustained by defender Eder Militao, his second of his players to suffer the injury following Thibaut Courtois last week.

In the 50th minute of Madrid's LaLiga opener against Atletico Bilbao, the defender left the pitch in tears, as Los Blancos sank 2-0 thanks to goals from Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham. When it was announced that the Brazilian will be out for several months, Madrid's worst fears were confirmed on Sunday. Real Madrid announced the news in a tweet on Sunday after Antonio Rudiger had recalled him after he limped off, according to a statement released by the defender.

Real Madrid is reported to be close to securing the loan signing of Kepa Arrizabalaga from Chelsea following an injury to regular goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. On Thursday, it was announced that Belgian international Courtois sustained a critical knee ligament injury, and Carlo Ancelotti's team raced quickly to find a temporary replacement. After being second-choice 'keeper under Thomas Tuchel, Kepa, who made 39 appearances for Chelsea last season, has been allowed to leave on loan after the Blues completed the signing of Robert Sanchez from Brighton.

Kepa Arrizabalaga, Chelsea's goalkeeper, is apparently on the verge of joining Real Madrid after being 'close to denying Bayern Munich'. Following the news that Thibaut Courtois sustained an ACL injury in preparation, Los Blancos are searching for a new goalkeeper.

Real Madrid is said to be considering a transfer for Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier. Since news broke that Thibaut Courtois would miss the entire forthcoming season after suffering an ACL injury, the Spanish giants have found themselves in the middle of a goalkeeping crisis. As he prepares to begin the recovery process, the club's long time No. 1 took to social media to thank followers for their help.
