Thibaut Courtois' Reply to Saudi Arabia Rumors: I'm Going to Sign...
Courtois is very clear about his short-term future
"Thibaut Courtois' plan is to renew his contract with Real Madrid for a couple more years. His entourage has no information about a possible transfer to Saudi Arabia," Miguel Ángel Díaz, a journalist from COPE , said yesterday.
"I'm going to sign a new contract with Real Madrid," is what the Belgian goalkeeper has reportedly told his closest friends. He still feels like the best goalkeeper in the world and believes he can stay in the elite for many more years.
Obviously, the fact that he could receive a large salary offer from Saudi Arabia has Madrid keeping an eye on his situation. But they are not worried, because he has a contract until 2026 and the player wants to renew.
Anything can happen However, in soccer you can never take anything for granted until it is official . Thibaut Courtois is 32 years old, and although he still has a few more years of soccer left in him, the Saudi option could be very interesting for him to end his career with one last big contract.
Real Madrid have recently renewed Andriy Lunin's contract until June 30, 2030, thinking of him as a replacement for Thibaut Courtois . In addition, there are several goalkeepers in the youth team who have great potential.
| That's why Madrid are calm, although they are even calmer when it's the Belgian who is in goal. Despite his serious knee injury, he has returned as the best goalkeeper in the world .
They want to renew him
The Madrid club intends to extend the player's contract. It is not a priority and there's no rush, because it ends in 2026. However, at the end of the season, talks could begin to reach a deal .
He has a whole season ahead of him to continue proving that there's no better goalkeeper than him at the moment . If he is decisive again and his saves help the team's success, he will surely get the contract he is hoping for.
However, his priority right now is to help the team and return to his best version, which is, without a doubt, that of 2022.
