Thibaut Courtois offers Real Madrid his services and wants Chelsea exit as goalkeeper plans on rejecting new contract offer

THIBAUT COURTOIS has reportedly offered himself to Real Madrid.
Writing in , Guillem Balague claims the goalkeeper wants to leave Chelsea and has already touted his services to Zinedine Zidane’s side.
Courtois has 18 months to run on his current Blues deal but apparently wants to return to the Spanish capital after spending three years at Atletico.
The 25-year-old’s partner and children already live in the city, and Courtois is said to “dream” of going back “home” after four seasons in London.
Chelsea are believed to be keen on a renewal, with Balague adding that they are prepared to make Courtois the highest-paid goalkeeper in world football.
But Antonio Conte is allegedly aware of the Belgian’s desire to leave and would be prepared to sell him next summer for a mega-money fee.
Chelsea have shown they are happy to offload important players for the right price in recent seasons.
And Conte is reportedly lining up Sevilla’s Sergio Rico as Courtois’ replacement, with Atletico’s Jan Oblak also on his radar.

Meanwhile, the Blues could also move for the latter’s team-mate Yannick Carrasco.
The winger is believed to have been transfer-listed by Diego Simeone, with Vitolo and Diego Costa both moving to the Wanda Metropolitano next month.
