LaLiga: Real Madrid suffer fresh blow ahead El Clasico against Barcelona

Real Madrid goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois, will miss Sunday’s massive LaLiga clash against Barcelona.

Courtois is unavailable due to illness.

The Belgian’s absence means that manager Jose Mourinho will have to start with Andriy Lunin.

This was confirmed by the Spanish club in a statement hours before the match.

It read: “Courtois is a last-minute withdrawal from tonight’s LaLiga matchday 10 game between Real Madrid and Barcelona due to a bout of the flu.

“Illia Voloshyn has been called up to the squad in his place.”

Los Blancos travel to the Camp Nou trailing Barca by six points in the table.
