Real Madrid goalkeeper Courtois joins Thursday training after injury scare

Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois joined training today at Valdebebas.

Courtois is in line to make this weekend’s clash with Real Valladolid, having been released from Belgium’s squad carrying a thigh strain.

There was concern the keeper would be missing for a month.

However, Courtois is now clear to resume club action this weekend. As such he’ll also make next week’s Copa del Rey semifinal second-leg against Barcelona and also the Champions League quarterfinal with Chelsea.

This season, the Belgian was absent for three weeks between September and October from sciatica problems that caused him to miss five games, while a thigh injury kept him out for three games in February.
