Real Madrid 'target Chelsea's Thibaut Courtois'

Real Madrid have reportedly compiled a dossier on Chelsea's on-loan goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, on the orders of Jose Mourinho when he managed at the Bernabeu.

Real Madrid are ready to launch a bid for Chelsea keeper Thibaut Courtois in the summer on the basis of a dossier ordered by their former manager Jose Mourinho.

During his time in charge at the Bernabeu, Mourinho put together a recruitment drive and wanted to keep information on Belgium shot-stopper, who has built a strong reputation while on-loan at local rivals Atletico Madrid.

And the Sunday Mirror quotes a Spanish source as saying: "As soon as Courtois arrived on loan at Atletico from Chelsea, a file was opened on him under instructions from Mourinho.

"The information built up is exhaustive and Courtois is on Madrid's list of targets, despite the presence of Iker Casillas and Diego Lopez in Carlo Ancelotti's squad."

Courtois is yet to make a senior start for parent club Chelsea since his move from Genk in 2011.
