Chelsea set to replace Thibaut Courtois with World class goalkeeper

Premier League Champions Chelsea are preparing a top-class goalkeeper as a replacement for shot-stopper Thibaut Courtois according to reports.

Courtois is being linked away from the West London club now and both Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are believed to be the two main interested suitors.

Atletico have already signed one player from the Blues recently in Diego Costa and could look to add the Belgian to that list.

La Liga Champion Real Madrid are also a side looking to sign the goalkeeper as they become frustrated in their long term chase of Manchester United safe hand David De Gea.

David nearly moved to Real a few years back but a delayed piece of documentation seen the move fall through.

Now, Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is simply not ready to let his star goalie leave Old Trafford which could see them turn to the Chelsea man.

While the defending Premier League Champions will keep close eye on the goalkeeping position, it is another surprise position they are looking to reinforce, with Jan Oblak on their mind.

Italian tactician Antonio Conte is eyeing a striker and is looking at a player he knows pretty well to provide competition to Morata.
