Thibaut Courtois: 'Chelsea extension is imminent'

Thibaut Courtois has revealed that he will "probably" sign a new contract with Chelsea after the current international break.

The goalkeeper, who has replaced Petr Cech as the club's first choice between the posts this season, is believed to have been offered a five-year extension at Stamford Bridge.

The Belgian international told Sky Sports News: "It's not yet signed. I am here with the national team so it is difficult, but when I am back at Chelsea I will probably sign the new contract."

Courtois won La Liga while on loan with Atletico Madrid last season, as well as playing in the Champions League final with the Spanish side.
