Thibaut Courtois has completed his move to Real Madrid from Chelsea on a six-year deal.
The deal is believed to be worth around £35m with Croatia international Mateo Kovacic joining the Blues on a season-long loan as part of the agreement.
Courtois spent seven years at Chelsea but his first three were on-loan at Real’s city rivals Atletico.

After completing his medical, the 26-year-old was presented to the media at Real Madrid’s Bernabeu.
He said: “Today I am realising a dream. This is the best club in the world.
“Since childhood I dreamed that this moment could happen. Today I’m one of you. I’m a more Madrid. Hala Madrid.”
Courtois won two Premier League titles, one FA Cup and one League Cup during his time at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea have replaced Courtois with the £71.6m signing of Kepa Arrizabalaga from Athletic Bilbao.
