World Cup 2018 Golden Glove prize-winner

Real Madrid is keeping close tabs on the Belgian goalkeeper at present, and they have got all reasons to do so. Courtois is a shot-stopper who executes his duties quite seamlessly - he is a Rolls-Royce of a goalkeeper who has exceptional positional sense, technical intelligence, mental composure and excellent reflexes.

All these traits earned him the much coveted Golden Glove award as he made a record 27 saves in the competition, the most by any goalkeeper. He has also kept 31 clean sheets in 71 appearances for the Blues over the past 2 years.

Nevertheless, his move to Real Madrid might be finalized with a fee lower than his market value since his contract with Chelsea runs out within 12 months and the 26 year old is eager to join his children in Madrid.
