Courtois rejects Real Madrid plans to offer him to Man Utd

Thibaut Courtois has told Real Madrid to forget about offering him to Manchester United.

The Sun says he has snubbed a possible move to Manchester United in exchange for David De Gea joining Real Madrid.

Talks between the European giants resulted in a proposal that the Belgium keeper be offered the chance to join United.

Courtois, 26, wants to to remain at the Bernabeu after he joined the club from Chelsea last summer.

But, if that is not possible, he would prefer to join Paris Saint-Germain instead over the close season.

After returning to Real, boss Zinedine Zidane dropped the ex-Chelsea stopper for his first game in charge - the 2-0 win over Real Betis.
