​Keeper Courtois set for Chelsea recall

Thibaut Courtois will be back in the Chelsea squad for Saturday's game against Bournemouth, boss Jose Mourinho has revealed.

Mourinho has been without his first-choice custodian since the 23 year old suffered a knee injury playing for Belgium at the start of September.

"Courtois is selected," Mourinho said at his pre-match press conference.

"Thibaut was our keeper all last season and you know how fundamental he was. It's important to have him back."
