Thibaut Courtois Claims Angry Chelsea 'Don't Know the Truth' About His Real Madrid Move

New Real Madrid keeper Thibaut Courtois has claimed that Chelsea fans who were angered by his exit from Stamford Bridge 'don't know the whole truth', while he insisted he 'loved' playing for the Blues.

The 26-year-old Belgian spent seven years as a Chelsea player - although during three has was loaned out to Atletico Madrid - winning two Premier League titles and the FA Cup.

After several years of speculation, due to the location of his family, Courtois made the move back to the Spanish capital with Real Madrid this summer, in a deal worth around £35m.
