Chelsea transfer news
The Spanish giants are looking for an alternative to Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea, with Carlo Ancelotti keen to sign a top class replacement for the struggling Iker Casillas.
Having been at fault for the first goal in the 4-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid this weekend, Casillas’ future is in doubt once again and Courtois looks a better option.
The Belgian shot-stopper has been superb for Chelsea this season, and it seems unlikely that the Blues would let him go too easily, though Jose Mourinho is a known admirer of Varane.
