Real Madrid’s Thibaut Courtois nominated for FIFA Best Award, Barcelona goalkeeper also in contention

According to the report from football-espana, Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is once again in contention to be recognised as the best goalkeeper in the world, following another FIFA Best award.InformationGuideNigeria

The Belgian goalkeeper was at an excellent level again domestically and in the Champions League in the first half of the year, and lifted the Copa del Rey with Real Madrid. However his absence due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury in the second half of 2023 means that Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson is the favourite, coming off the back of a year in which he won it all.JAMB Portal

Former Sevilla goalkeeper Yassine Bounou is also nominated, and his performance at last year’s World Cup could weigh heavily, in particular playing a key role in Morocco’s progress past Spain.NYSC Portal
