Real Madrid Identify World cup Hero as Potential Replacement for Thibaut Courtois
Real Madrid has swiftly moved to address the void left by the unfortunate injury to Thibaut Courtois, who sustained an ACL tear during a training session.
This setback has necessitated the club to expedite the search for a replacement goalkeeper. Courtois, facing a grueling six to seven-month recovery period following surgery, has prompted Real Madrid’s strategic pursuit of a new shot-stopper.
Intriguingly, the Spanish giants have cast their net wide, with prominent names like David de Gea and Chelsea’s Kepa Arrizabalaga reportedly under consideration. However, emerging as the frontrunner for this pivotal role is Sevilla’s Yassine Bounou.

Adept at marshaling his area and showcasing remarkable reflexes, Bounou’s profile harmonizes seamlessly with the requirements outlined by manager Carlo Ancelotti.
According to reputable sources, preliminary negotiations between Real Madrid and Bounou have already culminated in a mutual consensus on personal terms. What remains to be seen is the decisive factor of transfer fee negotiation, as Sevilla stands firm on their €20 million valuation for the Moroccan international who was a standout figure between the sticks in the 2022 fifa world cup.
