Thibaut Courtois hoping to sign Chelsea contract extension

Thibaut Courtois has told Sky Sports he hopes to commit his future to Chelsea by signing a new contract with the club.

Courtois, 25, helped Antonio Conte's side win the Premier League title and kept 16 clean sheets in the process, a league high, but he has been linked with a move to Real Madrid.

The Belgium international is currently contracted to Chelsea until 2019 but, speaking after losing 2-1 to Arsenal in the FA Cup final, he said he would like to be offered a new contract.

"Contract talks haven't opened but I am happy at Chelsea," Courtois said. "I hope they reward me with a good contract then there will be no doubt I will sign it."

Courtois replaced Cech as Chelsea's No. 1 in 2014-15 after returning from three seasons on loan with Atletico Madrid in which he won La Liga, the Europa League, the Copa del Rey and was runner-up in the 2014 Champions League final.
