Real Madrid has reportedly made an initial offer of £100 million to Chelsea for the signature of Thibaut Courtois and Willian, according to multiple reports from Spain. The pair is among a few in the Blues' camp who have been linked with moves away this summer, and the latter has particularly rehashed his desire to move back to Spain in recent times.
Willian, on the other hand, was close to joining Barcelona last week but saw his move fall through after the Catalans refused to match his £70 million valuation by Chelsea. The Blaugrana subsequently settled for the signature of his compatriot Malcom by paying Bordeaux half of Chelsea's asking price.
Latest development suggest that Real Madrid – who initially expressed interest in signing Eden Hazard – has now turned its attention to bringing Willian to Spain while negotiating a deal for Thibaut Courtois. The Brazilian forward will reportedly cost the European champions in the excess of £65 million.
Now English publication Daily Mail has enough reason to believe that the bid is being considered seriously by Chelsea as the club is willing to part ways with the winger should the right price arrive. Relatively, Maurizio Sarri's side will also be looking at worthy goalkeeping options available with Courtois angling close to an exit despite the recent signing of Rob Green.
