T. Courtois: "Spanish press is trying to destroy me"

Thibaut Courtois was hoping for a much better season upon arriving at Real Madrid in Madrid, but despite his recent sporting form, the Belgian sees himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

T. Courtois' season with Real Madrid is already over, but he reminded himself of his bad side in the Belgian national team when he made a big mistake in a match against Russia.

The Belgian also frequently attracts the attention of the Spanish media, which often describes his scandals with women.

"I still see myself as one of the best goalkeepers, despite the fact that the Spanish press wants to destroy me," the Belgian said.

"I am calm because I train and play well. I made a small mistake before Russia, but that is part of a goalkeeper's life. I made a mistake, but I was able to calm down and play my usual game," Courtois continued.
