Real Madrid, Thibaut Courtois, Arda Güler and Federico Valverde
30 October 2026
Real Madrid received a fitness boost ahead of their La Liga visit to Racing Santander, with goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and midfielder Arda Güler returning to full training. Federico Valverde remains a fitness doubt.
Güler resumed group sessions after recovering from muscular discomfort, while Courtois trained normally following a fever. Valverde continues individual work because of muscle fatigue following El Clásico. The club will assess his condition before Sunday’s league fixture, with no confirmed decision on his availability.
Why It Matters
Madrid regain two important players but could still be missing Valverde against Racing Santander.
