Chelsea boss AVB confirms Courtois agreement

Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas has confirmed they've struck terms with RacingGenk for goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.

Villas-Boas revealed the deal after their friendly victory at Portsmouth.

"There is an agreement between the two clubs," Villas-Boas said.

"It is also subject to personal agreements and from then we will decide what is best for him."

Asked whether Courtois could challenge for a first-team spot this season, Villas-Boas added: "Let's wait for him to agree terms.

"It seems unfair for me to make any comment on him but as soon as he is a Chelsea player we will see what kind of future he has."
