The potential transfer of Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois to Saudi club Al-Qadsiah is facing significant hurdles due to personal issues. While the Belgian player had reportedly reached a preliminary agreement on personal terms, a major obstacle has since emerged, jeopardizing the multi-million deal.
Details: Reports indicate that Courtois’ wife is firmly against the move to the Middle East. The situation has escalated, with sources claiming she has threatened divorce if he signs the contract to play in the Saudi league.
For Al-Qadsiah, this internal conflict poses a significant challenge, as they aimed to secure one of the world’s top goalkeepers. Courtois now faces a difficult decision: to pursue a lucrative career opportunity or prioritize his family’s stability.
So far this season, the Belgian keeper has played 41 matches for Madrid, achieving 15 clean sheets. His current market value is estimated at €18 million.
