This was stated by Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti at a press conference, El Espanol reports. The Italian specialist expressed full confidence in our compatriot, noting that the whole team believes in his skills, which should help him to replace the main goalkeeper.
"I want to wish Courtois a speedy recovery and encourage Lunin as we have a lot of confidence in him. We know he is a great talent, but he lacks experience. He will gain it day by day, game by game. The confidence in Lunin is complete. We will think whether we should add another goalkeeper to the squad. Lunin will play on Saturday. When it became known about Courtois' injury, we thought about giving Lunin such an opportunity," Ancelotti said.
