Chelsea do not want to sell Courtois

Chelsea do not want to sell goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.

The London Evening Standard says Chelsea are going to hold talks with Belgium international keeper Courtois over his long-term future at Stamford Bridge and ensure he doesn't ask for a permanent move elsewhere.

Courtois is currently on his second season-long loan at Atletico Madrid having joined Chelsea from Genk for £5m in 2011.

The 20-year-old is rated as one of the best young keepers in Europe and his form has been so good that he is now a target for Barcelona, who are considering replacing Victor Valdes at the end of the season.
