Real Madrid are exploring goalkeeping options in light of Thibaut Courtois’ ACL injury and contact has been made with David de Gea’s representatives.
De Gea is available as a free agent following his exit from Manchester United this summer.
Real are also making checks on Kepa Arrizabalaga’s situation. The Chelsea stopper is Bayern Munich’s top target in between the sticks with a loan-to-buy agreement being pursued.
Belgium international Courtois is understood to have suffered the anterior cruciate ligament injury to his left knee in training and will undergo surgery in the coming days.
The 31-year-old has made over 200 appearances for the club since joining from Chelsea in August 2018 and has been a near ever-present in the Spanish capital.
