statement<\/a>. The medical services speak of “pending evolution”, but due to the type of injury he will be out for approximately a month and a half.<\/p>\nCourtois was injured during last Tuesday’s game against Manchester City<\/strong>but at half-time he had to be replaced by the Ukrainian Andry Lunin<\/strong>. He will surely miss the derby against Atl\u00e9tico de Madrid, his first serious commitment after reaching the quarterfinals.<\/p>\n“After the tests carried out today on our player Thibaut Courtois by the Real Madrid Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with a muscle injury in the rectus femoris of the right quadriceps<\/strong>“, reads the brief statement, in which no time of sick leave is specified.<\/p>\nBut, as TVE has learned, the Madrid doctors estimate around a month and a half away from the fields. That includes the upcoming league derby against Atl\u00e9tico de Madrid<\/strong> at home, although later comes a national team break that would reduce the impact of his absence.<\/p>\nRCD Mallorca<\/strong>, Girona<\/strong>, Alav\u00e9s <\/strong>y Betis <\/strong>These are Madrid’s next league games throughout the month of April.

Even if the rehabilitation managed to shorten the deadlines, it seems unlikely that it would arrive in time for Europe.<\/p>\nOne more setback for coach \u00c1lvaro Arbeloa, although he could receive good news with the return to the squad Jude Bellingham<\/strong>who at the last minute was not even included on the Madrid bench against City in Manchester. would join Alvaro Carreras<\/strong> y Raul Asencio<\/strong>. After the national team break, the Brazilian central defender could also return Eder Militao<\/strong>which alternates part of the work with the group and another individual part.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Belgian goalkeeper of Real Madrid, Thibaut Courtois suffers a muscle injury to his right<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":826,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-825","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sport-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/825","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=825"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/825\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/826"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=825"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=825"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/razak.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=825"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
