Chelsea are reportedly considering a return for former player and current Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech should Thibaut Courtois join Real Madrid.

Chelsea are reportedly considering a move for former player and current Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech.

The Blues are in the market for a replacement to Thibaut Courtois, who is entering the final year of his contract at Stamford Bridge and is thought to be on the verge of joining Real Madrid.

Chelsea have been credited with an interest in Roma goalkeeper Alisson Becker, but Liverpool are understood to have now offered £62m for the Brazilian number one.

Sky Sports News reports that new boss Maurizio Sarri is considering handing Cech a return to Stamford Bridge, where he spent 11 years between 2004 and 2015.

Cech's form for Arsenal was questioned on numerous occasions last season, with the 36-year-old losing his place in the side to David Ospina towards the end of the campaign.

Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is also on Chelsea's radar according to the report, although the Foxes are expected to be reluctant to sell the Dane.
