having accepted €35m for the stopper, who will sign a four-year deal with Los

Blancos.

“€35m agreement between Chelsea & Real Madrid for the transfer of Thibaut

Courtois, 4-year contract, according to RMC,” Get French Football News tweeted.

Thibaut Courtois recently suggested that The Blues would likely have to improve

their wage offer if they want him to stay as his performances in the 2018 World

Cup have increased his value.

“I will go back and I will see what they want and how they say it,” he said after

the tournament ended. “Obviously, with this World Cup, I think what was on the

table is different than what I can have.

“In this World Cup, I have ignored all the speculation, all the rumours. But now,

in the next few days, I will have a chat with my agent and see what Chelsea told

him, and then we will talk. But I feel happy at Chelsea, it’s not that I necessarily

want to leave.”
