4 Goalkeepers Who Can Replace Thibaut Courtois At Chelsea

#3 Kasper Schmeichel (Leicester City)

Kasper Schmeichel had a terrific WC campaign

For his entire life, Kasper Schmeichel has had the pressure of being compared to his father's legendary status. While his career didn't really hit-off at Manchester City, his move to Leicester City in 2011 has seen him fulfil his potential quietly but surely.

Schmeichel had a very impressive World Cup and was one of Denmark's standout performers in the tournament.

He has a commanding presence in goal and his ball distribution skills are absolutely sublime. Last season, in 33 appearances, he gathered eight clean sheets to his name. Statistically, he saves 2.45 goals per game- a number that puts him up there with some of the best goalkeepers in the world.

He just turned 31 last year and according to many experts, goalkeepers hit their prime in their 30s. Hence, one can safely assume that Schmeichel's best years are still ahead of him.

In order to prise him away from Leicester, though, Chelsea will have to cough up a sum between £15- £20 million. It does look like a reasonable enough investment for Blues.
