Manchester United can breathe a sigh of relief following talk of Real Madrid dropping their interest in David de Gea and switching their attention to Thibaut Courtois, according to the Mirror.
Real have apparently been encouraged by the delay in Courtois' contract talks at Chelsea, with his current deal set to expire in 2019.
If the Blues fail to tie down the 25-year-old soon, next summer could be the only chance to cash in -- which is when the Spanish giants intend to pounce.
After spending three successful seasons at Atletico Madrid, it remains to be seen whether Courtois would be willing to join his former club's bitter rivals.
