Chelsea keeper Cech ready for Courtois competition

05 April 2014 - 05:28

Petr Cech is confident that he can keep the upcoming keeper Thibaut Courtois at bay. The Chelsea number 1 could face extra competition from Courtois should the Belgian be brought to Stamford Bridge after ending his loan spell at Atletico Madrid.

  • Chelsea join Liverpool & Man Utd in race to sign 26yo
  • Barcelona identify Arsenal midfielder as key transfer target



  • Cech has so far remained Jose Mourinho's preferred first choice keeper but many expect Courtois to eventually take over the number 1 jersey.

    Talk of the extra competition fails to concern Cech though, and he told reporters: "If, on the first day of pre-season, Thibaut Courtois is here, he is here. If he is not, he is not."

    "It does not change anything. I will still have to do better than whoever else is here, to keep my place. It doesn't change anything for me."
