Courtois admits asking Chelsea permission to speak with other clubs

Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has admitted transfer talks with parent club Chelsea.

Courtois, who is currently on a third successive season-long loan spell at Atletico Madrid, has two years left on his contract at Chelsea.

He said: "I know this, but it depends on Chelsea and what they ask. First, my agent is talking to Chelsea, to ask if I could talk to other clubs. Then we'll know a bit more. Atletico will wait for what Chelsea has to say.

"First, we want to hear from Chelsea what they are going to do and then we'll see."
