The 22 year old spent the past three seasons winning a raft of honours whilst on loan at Atletico Madrid and clearly hopes to continue that fine run with the Blues.
Courtois won the La Liga title with the Vicente Calderon side last term but saw a double triumph ended by city rivals Real in the Champions League final.
When asked about his side’s chances of winning the Premier League Courtois stated;
“We have the team to win the Champions League. So hopefully we could win both. Obviously, we have a very strong team to do it, not only 11 players but a very strong bench and even players who fell out of the team sometimes.”
“The Premier League would be really nice to win. I played the Champions League final last year so I want revenge for that (defeat) and win the Champions League,” he added.
“To be Premier League champions you are the best team from 20 teams all season. If you play against City, United, Liverpool, Arsenal – if you are champions of the Premier League it is a really nice trophy.
“I’d rather have both, but if I had to choose, maybe the Premier League now and another year the Champions League.”
