Chelsea's Courtois chuffed to finalise third Atletico loan

Thibaut Courtois was delighted to have completed a third successive loan move to Atletico Madrid.

The 21-year old Belgian goalkeeper has been loaned out yet again by Chelsea but he is happy to return to the Vicente Calderon Stadium after helping Los Rojiblancos take out the Europa League, UEFA Super Cup and Copa del Rey over the past two seasons.

"I'm very happy because it's what I was wanting," Courtois told Atletico's official website.

"I've always said that next season I wanted to continue at Atletico and compete in a competition as important as the Champions League, having achieved qualification in such a brilliant way.

"I've only thought about continuing to enjoy the incredible fans that we have and I hope that we can continue giving them plenty of joy."
