Resu Sports, April 29th: Spanish media outlet Relevo reported that due to Courtois' outstanding performance, Real Madrid is about to extend his contract for two years. The agreement will be completed in the coming weeks and announced at the end of La Liga.
Courtois is 32 years old now. There is an unwritten rule within Real Madrid that players over 30 years old must renew their contracts year by year. However, the Galacticos will break this rule for Courtois and offer him an additional two-year contract.
A Real Madrid source told Relevo that this exception is because Courtois is excellent enough that even with injuries, his stable form has not been affected. He is an indispensable member of both the team and the coaching staff. And Ancelotti also believes that no one is better than him.
Off the field, Courtois' role in the dressing room has become increasingly prominent. After the Copa del Rey loss to Barcelona, it was he who guided his teammates to stay calm and prevent the situation from escalating further (three people have already been sent off with red cards).
Although the team is expected to announce it at the end of La Liga, if the situation changes, it might be announced earlier - Real Madrid needs a shot in the arm now.
