Lhe injury to Thibaut Courtois at noon on Thursday, which occurred as a result of a strange gesture on his left knee in another play of the training session in Valdebebas, shocked Real Madrid fans, beginning with the players, followed by the coaches and ending with some fans who did not they think so. The leaders remained calm and when the injury was confirmed, they began to search for a replacement for the Belgian and the favourite, after listening to and analyzing many options, is Yassine Bono. The Sevilla goalkeeper was very close to accepting a proposal from Saudi football, but the operation came to a halt before the appearance of Real Madrid. Bono (32 years old) is seduced by the idea of wearing white and has made it known to the Sevilla leaders.
As we said, Bono is not the only name that has appeared, since proposals such as those of David de Gea, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Lloris or Keylor Navas have been heard at the Valdebebas work table. The idea from the outset has been clear: seek an operation, without an excessive financial outlay. The first idea was even to find a loan, but as soon as the option of the Sevilla goalkeeper arose, the spotlights have been on the Moroccan.
Sevilla open to a sale
The Seville club needs to carry out some transfer to try to normalize its economic situation in order to be able to incorporate more players for the many challenges that lie ahead for the team led by Mendilibar. The problem is that Sevilla was looking for a transfer with which to improve that income statement and Real Madrid wants a loan.
In Seville there was talk of an operation close to 20 million euros, far from the 50 that appear as a termination clause. Real Madrid did not plan to make that outlay, but the reality is that the situation after Courtois’ cruciate knee break invites such a move. The white club prefers a loan and it is the point at which the conversations between the two entities are at this moment.
Bono is to Ancelotti’s taste, as is Kepa, who is close to closing a session with Bayern. The appearance of Real Madrid in the goalkeeper market has paralyzed different operations and many of those involved are waiting for the final decision of the Madrid team, but the truth is that the favorite after the morning earthquake is none other than Bono.
