BREAKING: Courtois out six weeks with quad injury
Real Madrid have published a medical report on goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, who suffered a quad injury during his pre-game routine ahead of the return leg against Manchester City. The Belgian star will miss around six weeks with this injury, which is devastating news for Madrid considering that he will miss crucial games like the ones against Atlético (LaLiga) and the Quarterfinals against Bayern Munich. He could try to be back in time against Barcelona, although his presence in the XI could be premature.
