Thibaut Courtois manufactured an exit from Chelsea this summer due to the stress caused by living away from his children, according to the player's agent.
The 26-year-old put pen to paper on a six-year contract with Real Madrid earlier in the week; bringing an end to the Belgian's seven-year spell at Stamford Bridge after joining the Blues from Genk in 2011.
However, despite some claiming that the stopper forced his move away from west London for the "wrong reasons", the custodian's agent, Christophe Henrotay, insisted to BBC Sport that it only transpired due to family circumstances.
