Chelsea full-back Marcos Alonso has opened up about Blues goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois’ links to Real Madrid, as the Spanish giants are continuously monitoring the 23-year-old Belgian.
Courtois has been on top of the Galacticos’ shortlist for a while now, and the West London side are hoping the player to sign a new contract at Stamford Bridge to ward off any interest from Real Madrid and the rest of the teams keen on him.
Team-mate Alonso is desperate for the player to stay in the club as he states him to be an important figure for the whole side every game.
“I really hope [Courtois does not join Real Madrid] because he is great goalkeeper and he is helping us every game.”

Courtois has managed to keep amazing 13 clean sheets for the Blues this season, which has been a huge difference-maker in Chelsea’s cruise towards the Premier League title.
