After a spell at Chelsea, Courtois decided to pack his bags in the summer of 2018 and sign for Real Madrid.
Los Blancos welcomed him with open arms and the Belgian responded to the affection. However, his path to the starting spot was complicated because Keylor Navas was a tough competitor.
After a hard battle, the Costa Rican left in the summer when he saw that he wasn't going to start. Out of nowhere, Courtois took the number one spot and was able to settle down just a year after arriving.
At the moment he doesn't have any competition for the number one spot, that can lead to trust, although at the moment it doesn't. It's true that criticism has always been with him, but that's in the past.
Madrid are going through a good run defensively, as the team are conceding few goals, The ex Chelsea player is enjoying things and knows that things can change at any moment.
