THIBAUT COURTOIS WINS "EL ZAMORA | BEST GOALKEEPER IN LIGA 2012-2013

Atletico de Madrid 21 year old goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has won the "Zamora Award" as the "Best Goalkeeper in Liga season 2012- 2013". An amazing prize for the young man who is on-loan from Chelsea FC & will continue another season more at Atletico de Madrid. The Spanish Football Club continues to attempt to "buy out " the goalie but Chelsea FC sees him as their "next generation" goalie & are happy to seehim grow, mature & evolve at Atletico.

The Belguim International was called by Jose Mourinho to follow him to Chelsea FC next season but declined the offer because he did not want to be "second" to Petr Cech. From an Atletico perspective the Club is delighted as they can count on Courtois next season where they will participate in Champions League.

Here are the final numbers & the the Top 5 goalies in Spanish Football for this season:

Name Coefficient        Goals        Games

Courtois (ATLETICO MADRID ) 0,78 28 36
Víctor Valdés (FC BARCELONA ) 1,06 33 31
Andrés Fernández (OSASUNA) 1,24 46 37
Caballero (MALAGA FC)         1,24 42 34
Claudio Bravo (REAL SOCIEDAD)   1,29 40 31

Congratulations Courtois!
