Jose Mourinho happy with goalkeeping options ahead of new season

Jose Mourinho insists that he is happy to keep Thibaut Courtois and Petr Cech at Chelsea this summer.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has revealed that he has no intention of allowing one of his goalkeepers to leave Stamford Bridge this summer.

Thibaut Courtois has returned to the club to challenge Petr Cech for a starting spot following three successful seasons on loan at Atletico Madrid, and Mourinho is happy to have options ahead of the new season.

"To have Cech and Courtois means we have the best young goalkeeper in the world and one of the top-three or five most experienced keepers," the Chelsea boss told reporters.

"For me and Chelsea, it's perfect. Maybe one of them won't be happy but the Chelsea supporters will be happy and they're more important than players.

"Of course, the window is the window, but I'm so happy with the situation."

Reports this summer have suggested that Monaco are interested in signing Cech.
