Guus Hiddink opens up on Chelsea star's relationship with coach
GUUS HIDDINK believes Thibaut Courtois will stay at Chelsea despite allegedly falling out with his goalkeeping coach.
Courtois has missed large parts of the season with injury and could leave this summer
Courtois is said to have fallen out with coach Christophe Lollichon after he injured his knee during training and reportedly this week told incoming boss Antonio Conte he would only stay if Lollichon leaves.
And Express Sport understands Conte is now ready to let the 23-year-old goalkeeper leave in the summer.
Both Real Madrid and Barcelona are understood to be interested but Chelsea will ask for a hefty fee with a £73million price tag having been slapped on his head.
"But you have to cope and you have to be very professional to each other and they do.
“I check the training and it is mostly separate to the group.
"I see full commitment of executing the exercises.”
