On-loan Chelsea keeper Thibault Courtois wants to stay at Atletico Madrid for another season says The Daily Mirror.
Do you know how we know? Because helpfully enough, he said so here. Honestly! Look.
"I am happy, I like my life here, my team-mates. It is not just my decision, Chelsea and Atletico also have to talk.” Says Courtois.
"But everyone knows I like it here and, if I can, I want to stay."
Sounds lovely Thibault. Be sure to send us a postcard!
With Petr Cech still going strong in the Chelsea goal in makes sense for Courtois to stay in Madrid for at least a season longer. The Belgian is proving he is a fine keeper in La Liga and another season playing the majority of games for Atletico will aid his development much more than a year keeping the bench warm at Stamford Bridge.
But with Cech in good form, and although it seems as though he’s been around for ever, still just 30-years-old, Courtois may be wondering if there will ever be a first team place for him at Chelsea. Cech could have another ten years ahead of him –just look at Brad Friedel! – and its seems unlikely that the young stopper would be content with too many more seasons a loan player.
