Goal, meanwhile, who cite reports from OK Diario, claim Chelsea No.1 Thibaut Courtois has issued a ‘come and get me’ plea to Real Madrid for summer 2016.

Furthermore, he’s known to be fond of the Spanish capital, having lifted a Europa League title, a Copa del Rey and a La Liga title during a three-year loan spell with local rivals Atletico Madrid.
