Chelsea will tell Petr Cech to find a new club in the final weeks of the transfer window after deciding to make Thibaut Courtois their No.1 this season.
Jose Mourinho is to put his faith in Courtois at the start of the
campaign, spelling the end for Cech at Stamford Bridge following a
decade spent as the club's undisputed first choice.
Cech will be encouraged to move as Chelsea stand to receive a more
significant transfer fee from selling the Czech goalkeeper now than in
12 months, when he would have just one year to run on his contract.
Courtois, who played 90 minutes in goal for the Blues in their final pre- season match on Tuesday night, will get the nod over Cech for Monday's Premier League curtain-raiser against newly promoted Burnley.
The west Londoners value Cech at around €12 million.
Real Madrid and wealthy French duo Paris Saint- Germain and Monaco are closely monitoring the 32-year-old's situation but no formal bids are expected until Cech's downgraded status is confirmed at the start of next week. |
