Chelsea to offer Courtois new terms

Chelsea are ready to offer Thibaut Courtois a new contract in an attempt to fend of interest from Real Madrid, according to the Mail Online.

The Spanish giants, who moved one step closer to booking their place in the Champions League final on Tuesday evening by thumping rivals Atletico Madrid by three goals to nil at the Bernabeu are on the lookout for a new goalkeeper, with Manchester United’s David de Gea also on their radar.

Courtois’ current deal sees him earn around £120,000-per-week and runs until the end of the 2018/19 campaign though a new deal would boast much better terms.

Since returning to Stamford Bridge following a three-year loan spell with Atletico Madrid the twenty-four year old has racked up one hundred and three appearances for the Blues in all competitions and was part of the squad that won both the Premier League title and League Cup in 2015.
