According to the Telegraph, Chelsea goalkeepers Thibaut Courtois and Asmir Begovic have refused to give future manager Antonio Conte assurances on their full commitment for the team for "very different reasons".
Courtois showed hesitation in assuring the Belgian press that he would play for Chelsea next season while on international duty. That would presumably be motivated by Real Madrid's perceived interest on his services, with the papers running stories that the Blues asked for £73 million from Madrid when last inquired about the goalkeeper.
Meanwhile, Begovic spent significant time on the bench after stringing good performances for the team while Courtois was absent with a knee injury in the fall. The former Stoke man voiced his frustration as things didn't go as planned, and he's hoping for more first-team minutes after just his second start under Guus Hiddink's command last weekend against Swansea.
The Telegraph claims that Begovic would only be sold by Chelsea after the Euros, with Begovic certain that he will leave the Blues if Courtois stays, or if Conte brings a new goalkeeper to the squad. The club could also offer an extension to Courtois' current deal that is set to end in June 2019.
After a superb first season for Chelsea, Courtois has struggled in his second year, like many other Chelsea players. But, the 23-year-old goalkeeper is still one of the most talented players at his position, and losing him would leave the Blues in search of a new long-term number one, just twelve months removed from having two of the planet's best.
Begovic might not be as talented as the Belgian, but he's certainly an excellent and reliable player to have as a back-up goalkeeper. He is capable of being first-choice for most Premier League sides, and thus it might be difficult to keep hold of him for too long if he's keen on being a one once again.
In an ideal world, Chelsea would be able to keep both goalkeepers happy and move onto the next season looking to make a Champions League return. But by the looks of it, one of them will probably be leaving in the near future.
