Real Madrid | The final track? Carlo Ancelotti in the Lunin-Courtois dilemma before the Champions League final

He real Madrid, the league champions, are in the final days of domestic competition in preparation for the Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund on June 1. Carlo Ancelotti has several games ahead to analyze the performance of his players and assemble the best squad to lift the fifteenth “orejona” of the white club.

The Italian coach’s big dilemma is the goal. Lunin had a great season and he deserved to play in the most important game of the course, but if one thing is clear to Carletto, it is that Thibaut Courtois is their starting goalkeeper.. The Belgian recovered in time from two knee injuries and, logically, also wants to be at Wembley. Debate is served.

After the defeat against Granada this Saturday, in which Courtois played the full 90 minutes and intervened well on a not very busy day, Ancelotti was asked about the level of the goalkeeper and he left a phrase that from Madrid was interpreted as almost a defining clue. “Thibault needs to play,” he said.

It is obvious that if he plays against Alaves, Villarreal and Betis, the Belgian will become the goalkeeper of the Champions League final. On the other hand, if Lunin comes on stage with any of these obligations, he will be chosen. Several media outlets in the Spanish capital have also reported in recent days that Ancelotti intends to give Kepa minutes so he can say goodbye to the Merengue fans.

According to COPE Chain, the decision has been made and Ancelotti will bet on Courtois.. Let’s see how the Madrid coach’s decision develops and whether he will make it public before the final. For now, in addition to the indirect clues he leaves, he insists that he wants his team’s three goalies to be ready.
