Real Madrid boss Ancelotti confirms Courtois & Militão comeback dates

Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti has this afternoon provided updates on the respective return efforts of key Blancos pair Éder Militão, and Thibaut Courtois.

And the news will no doubt be met with widespread excitement on the part of the Real faithful.

This comes amid confirmation that both Militão and Courtois are in line to feature in the run-in to their side’s campaign.

The pair have of course been sidelined since all the way back in August, after remarkably suffering respective ACL injuries less than a week apart.

With both having been spotted in individualised training sessions over the last couple of weeks, though, the subject of their comeback timelines, in turn, was put to boss Ancelotti once more on Friday.

And, speaking in a press conference ahead of his side’s trip to the Mestalla to face Valencia on Saturday, Real’s boss went on to confirm precisely when the club’s supporters can expect to see Courtois and Militão back on the pitch:

“After Mallorca’s match (April 14), Courtois & Militão will be available to play.”
