Reports emanating from Spain indicates Thibaut Courtois is not set to pen a new deal at the West London club and the Chelsea man could join La Liga giants Real Madrid for free next summer transfer window.
Courtois wants to leave
According to Metro, the 25-year-old safe hand has no plans to pen a fresh deal at the club but is glad to run out his contract with the Premier League club.
By implication, he becomes available on Bosman ruling next summer window, with the Bernabeu giant having been tipped as a destination for the Belgian in recent months.
The same article says that the goalkeeper has his heart made upon a transfer to the Spanish side once his deal at Chelsea runs out next summer window.
Dilemma at the Bridge
Should the suggestions be true, it would leave the Blues in a tough position of trying to decide if to offload him this summer window rather than risk losing the shot-stopper on a free next year.
Meanwhile, the Belgium international will be expected to begin in goal for the Blues when they host Merseyside giants Liverpool in their crucial English Premier League encounter at the Bridge on Sunday.
Below par performance
Chelsea are currently in the fifth position and on course to miss out on a place in the UEFA Champions League for next term.
