However, Courtois himself has now provided hope that he could make an appearance before the season comes to an end. Speaking on Twitch streamer DjMaRIIO’s stream (via MD) on Friday, the Belgian goalkeeper revealed that he should be back in training towards the end of this month, which gives him a chance of playing in Real Madrid’s final couple of matches.
