CHOULO19 24,332 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Saw this on Twiter: Simeone: "For me, any price for Courtois would be cheap. To secure a GK of his quality would be a big coup. It depends what he wants." #CFCIf true, it means that Athletico would really go all the way in trying to sign him permanently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to play, this is what I want, I want to play and if it's not in Chelsea then it will be at another club."He went on to say, in a politically correct and indirect manner, that his manager will speak to Chelsea and ask for a decision.What he meant was, in my opinion, very clear: "take me now as number 1 keeper or sell me". yuvala 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drog.ba 239 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 He'll be sold, probably for £15-20m, maybe in the summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 First De Bruyne, then Mata and I feel soon it will be Courtois too. Jose loves Cech too much and never worked with Courtois before, he will think that its too much risk to trust such young GK. And then on top, there will be our great negotiating board who will sell 35mio worth Courtois (certainly by today standards, his age and form) for about 15-20mio. Beautiful.

I get what Courtois wants here but he has been like saying the same old thing over and over again and feels as though he's such in a hurry to go somewhere. I know he wants his future to be sorted before the World Cup but seriously... HD3D and daBlackMamba7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he wants his future to be sorted before the World Cup but seriously...The worst thing is that our Belgian players actually have the talent to assume such arrogant attitude towards the club. Courtois, for example, is already regarded as one of the greatest keepers in the world and he is just 21. If he continues to develop and improve, he has the potential to become one of the greatest of all time.So we have little choice but to put up with this type of shit.

It's not like the club aren't aware of this situation and not doing anything to make a decision. Not really sure if the club appreciates this 'arrogance' shown towards them.

It's not like he's badmouthing the club.But he already knows his future. It's written all over his contract and he can reread it if he forgets.
