For several hours, the shadow of Saudi Arabia has hovered menacingly over Real Madrid. On the one hand, the journalist Romain Molina who affirms that the possibility of seeing Vinicius Junior leave the Merengue club in the coming years to join the Saudi Pro League would be real, even if the file is still very far from being completed. And another crazy rumor has highlighted the possibility of seeing Thibaut Courtois, the Belgian goalkeeper, also making the big jump to Saudi Arabia!
Courtois instead intends to extend to Real Madrid
It was the daily Marca which launched this hypothesis in recent hours, ensuring that on the Middle East side, they are targeting the Real Madrid goalkeeper for next season. In his quest for stars, could Courtois land? A priori, the answer is no. The Spanish media that started the rumor closed it just as quickly, ensuring that Courtois' plan was to stay in Madrid. Same thing for Cope a little later, who affirmed that the goalkeeper's objective was above all to extend his contract for two more years in Spain.
A few months ago, on the sidelines of the Spanish Super Cup organized in Riyadh, Courtois spoke of Saudi ambitions in a positive way. “Saudi Arabia wants to improve in sport, we saw how they won against Argentina at the World Cup. The presence of Cristiano Ronaldo in Saudi stadiums brings a plus to the country. » But clearly not enough to convince him personally to take the plunge.
