Courtois will be out for around a month and a half. Medical tests the Real Madrid goalkeeper underwent this morning revealed a muscle injury in the rectus femoris of his right quadriceps.
This significant injury will force Real to play several matches without their senior goalkeeper at a crucial point in the season, with the Madrid derby on the horizon and, above all, the Champions League quarter-final tie against Bayern Munich.
If the most optimistic predictions of the Madrid medical services are correct, Courtois would definitely miss seven games (five in La Liga and the Champions League quarter-finals).
He could be available to play in a hypothetical European Cup semi-final (from April 28 to May 6) , provided that Madrid, without their starting goalkeeper, manages to eliminate Bayern .
