Thibaut Courtois is still out of action with a knee injury at Real Madrid. Royal’s number one seems untouchable in the Spanish capital for the moment, but Real appear to be working on a long-term successor.
Courtois was injured during training at Real Madrid and will be unavailable for the next few months. The European Championship will certainly be missed, a defeat for the national team. In the meantime, Real Madrid are scanning the market for a new goalkeeper.
Randall Rodríguez to Real Madrid?
According to Los Merengues Transfers it ended with Randall Rodríguez, a young Uruguayan goalkeeper under contract with Peñarol. Rodríguez made his mark at the Under-20 World Cup in Argentina last summer.
Madrid would like to bring Rodríguez aboard their second team, Real Madrid Castilla. There he would be allowed to mature in silence, before eventually being able to board the main force. Rodríguez is committed until mid-2024 and currently has to cost 500 thousand euros (Transfer market).
Lunin and Kepa
Real Madrid, meanwhile, have signed Kepa to make up for Courtois’ absence. The Spaniard is rented by Chelsea for a season, but could then make the switch permanently.
Furthermore, Real also has Andriy Lunin under contract, but he would like to play more. And with the possible arrival of Rodríguez, the Ukrainian’s playing possibilities do not seem to increase immediately.
