Real Madrid monitored Gregor Kobel as a potential goalkeeper for the future

Real Madrid received an opportunity to sign Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel as a long-term successor to Thibaut Courtois. While the club monitored the Swiss international for several years, officials have not pursued the transfer. Thibaut Courtois currently faces an expiring contract at the end of the season, but Real Madrid expects to secure an extension through 2028. Borussia Dortmund remains open to potential business with the Spanish side, given the positive relationship established through previous transfers like Jude Bellingham. At 28 years old, Gregor Kobel continues to perform for his current club, while internal discussions at Real Madrid prioritize maintaining their current veteran presence in goal.
