Sunderland keeper Mignolet gunning for Chelsea's Courtois

Sunderland goalkeeper Simon Mignolet is determined to be Belgium's new No1.

Mignolet is having to play second fiddle to Chelsea's Thibaut Courtois, currently on-loan with Atletico Madrid.

"At this moment the coach chooses Thibaut. But I want every practice and every game to show that I want to return. I accept the choice of the coach, but I will certainly not lay down.

"Currently he's playing Thibaut, but that might change quickly," said Mignolet.
