Real Madrid boss Zidane opens door to Courtois sale

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has opened the door to Thibaut Courtois leaving this summer.

The Belgium goalkeeper only moved to Madrid last summer from Chelsea.

Keylor Navas and Zidane's son Luca are competing with Courtois for the No.1 jersey and the boss would understand if one of Navas or Courtois decided to leave.

“I would understand if a goalkeeper asked me to leave for the next season, it could happen," Zidane said.

“I said recently that I had the best three, both are there and there is another young man who has a very good future.

“Keylor and Thibaut are very good, I must choose just one of course and that is a complicated thing for me when I have to choose what is better for the team."
