55% of Spanish fans, especially Real Madrid, say that Courtois is a better goalkeeper than Casillas according to MARCA. 45% lean towards the former Madrid captain, it should be noted that most of the voters were young people who have more in mind the present of Real Madrid and do not remember much of Casillas' legacy, but the numbers speak and the Belgian goalkeeper is the preferred.

The debate arises as a result of the fact that the goal is the most regular position and it is difficult to measure exactly how good a goalkeeper is, the tackles are one variable, another the goals without goals, however, you can't win a game without goals and that's why you can't know exactly which goalkeeper is better than another. It all comes down to the great rescues they have had.

About Casillas they wrote in MARCA that he wrote his story with gold, especially in Real Madrid and with that Spanish team champion in 2010, where Iker stopped a hand to Robben: "Casillas signed with GOLD letters pages of Madrid history, as well as the Spanish National Team," revealed the media cited.

On the other hand, Courtois' story begins only in 2018, that is, we are comparing a career of several years like that of Casillas with one that is practically beginning, in order to make a better analysis this study should be done taking into account the trajectory of Courtois at the end of his career: "The story of the Belgian in the White House begins in 2018. And he's on the right track," the Spanish media revealed.

They raised Courtois to the height of Maradona, Cristiano, Messi

The debate arose as a result of journalist Santi Cañizares saying that Courtois is: "It's Maradona, it's Messi, it's the Cristiano of the goal. Courtois is the best goalkeeper I've ever seen." Many took these words as something exaggerated and that does not honor the history of other archers, even like Keylor Navas. However, it should be noted that if Courtois continues with this level, he will be able to take that award without problem.
