Thibaut Courtois’ future at Chelsea continues to come under scrutiny following the Belgian’s recent comments about his desire to return to Madrid one day.
The towering goalkeeper enjoyed a hugely successful loan tenure with Atletico Madrid before he returned to Chelsea to replace the departing Petr Cech, and it seems he is keen to make the switch back to Spain in the not so distant future.
Courtois has not been in good form of late and had a torrid time in Chelsea’s recent two outings against Bournemouth and Watford.
As quoted by Sky Sports, Courtois addressed the recent rumours linking him with a move to Real Madrid, as the La Liga giants continue to scout replacements for Keylor Navas.
My personal situation is related to the city of Madrid. My two children live there with their mum. I have my daughter every day on FaceTime. She often tells me that she misses me. My son is still too small to communicate like that.
Whenever I have the opportunity, I try to return to Spain. As a situation, it is not always easy. Yes, my heart is in Madrid. It is logical and understandable.
If they want me, they have to contact Chelsea. We’ll see. But they have not done that. What is certain is that one day I will return to Madrid. I love Spain, I love the city, I spent three wonderful years there [with Atletico Madrid]. It is there that I became an adult.
Courtois has often reiterated that he is happy at Chelsea but the prospect of joining Real Madrid appears to be a hugely tempting proposition for the goalkeeper.
Atletico was a real group of friends. We went out together and my team-mates taught me a language I did not know at all when I arrived. When I left, I cried. My first days in London were not easy. England, when I arrived, was colder, more business. Now, I feel very good here.
I understand that the rumours are coming back today, as we are talking about a new goalkeeper there [at Real]. But I do not pay much attention to that, I stay focused on Chelsea.
Chelsea will hope to keep hold of the 25-year-old beyond the summer.
