Thibaut Courtois, Real Madrid's star goalkeeper, has made a significant step in his recovery by returning to team training ahead of their highly anticipated Champions League quarter-final clash against Arsenal.
This development comes as a relief for Los Blancos, who have been grappling with an injury crisis in their goalkeeping department.
Courtois had been sidelined due to a muscle injury sustained during international duty with Belgium. The injury, which occurred during a warm-up session before a Nations League match, forced him to miss several key fixtures, including La Liga and Copa del Rey matches. Despite initial concerns about the severity of the injury, Courtois has shown steady progress in his recovery.
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti expressed optimism about Courtois's availability for the crucial encounter at the Emirates Stadium. He noted that Courtois had trained and was feeling good, raising hopes for his readiness for the Arsenal game.
Courtois's return is timely, as Real Madrid aims to strengthen their defensive lineup against a formidable Arsenal side. His presence between the posts could prove pivotal in securing a favorable result in the first leg of the quarter-finals.
