According to "Varzesh3", Thibaut Courtois still does not consider his presence in El Clásico lost. Real Madrid announced on Sunday morning that the goalkeeper had been removed from the team list due to flu, but the 34-year-old Belgian player wants to try until the last moment to be present in the match against Barcelona.
Club sources at Valdebebas explained: "We have to see how the coming hours go and how much better he feels. If so, he will fly to Barcelona."
They added: "It remains to be seen whether he can recover one hundred percent and fly or not."
The club's medical report pointed to his absence, but if Courtois gets better over the coming hours, the possibility of his travel still remains. Courtois does not want to give up and is ready to stretch the deadlines as much as possible to reach a match he has no desire whatsoever to miss.
Sunday morning was accompanied by turmoil and confusion and dealt the first blow to Mourinho's Real Madrid. Sources at Valdebebas, before a second and clearer diagnosis completed the picture, said: "He has caught a severe flu." The virus has gripped the Belgian goalkeeper powerfully and put him out of action, to the point that the club announced his absence from El Clásico. But Thibaut has not said his last word and wants to keep trying.
The morning confusion contrasts with the caution now prevailing at the club. The medical report pointed to his definite absence, but if Courtois experiences sufficient improvement, the possibility of his travel remains open.
The Belgian goalkeeper wants to exhaust all possible deadlines before accepting absence against Barcelona. In any case, Real Madrid is also completely confident that if its first-choice goalkeeper does not arrive in time, it has reliable options in goal.
The club confidently announced: "We have Lunin. He is very good," since they are confident in the Ukrainian goalkeeper's readiness to accept responsibility and reduce concerns.
