Am not sure of staying with Chelsea next season- Courtois

 

Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has fuelled speculation regarding his future by admitting he "does not know" whether he will remain at Stamford Bridge next season.

A miserable season start under Jose Mourinho saw the Blues boss sacked in December, yet interim coach Guus Hiddink has since steered his recovering side into 10th in the Premier League.

Hiddink has been unable to keep Chelsea in the race for honours, however, following exits in the FA Cup and Champions League in March, while European qualification also looks slim.

Speaking on international duty with Belgium, Courtois - who has been linked with a move to Liga giants Real Madrid this week - admitted his discontent at the season and refused to rule out a transfer away from the London club this summer.


"I do not say yes, I do not say no. I do not know," he told Belgian broadcaster RTBF when asked if he will stay at Chelsea beyond this season.

"I still have three years on my contract. We must see what Chelsea want.

"It is true that it [this season] has changed me. Until now I had always won a trophy every season. We hope that next season will be better."

Courtois, who prepares to face Portugal on Tuesday, added he enjoys training with the Red Devils' "world-class players" as opposed to Chelsea's "little less rated" stars.

"The level of training is higher among Devils," he said.

Every single country that we are operating in, we would create, generate our own power and that is why we have been very, very successful.” Speaking also during the event, president of the African Development Bank (AfDB), Akinwumi Adesina, stated that Africa must seek ways to light up the continent. He said: “If you walk in the dark, you’ll stumble and you will fall. But if you walk in the light, you will constantly see thing ahead of you. “The problem is, in Africa, you have today 645 million people without electricity. You have the GDP in which the cost of not having electricity is about four to five percent shaved off. “We cannot be competitive when it comes to value adding. We cannot industrialize because we have no electricity. The kids cannot go to school because we have no electricity. “Vaccines can’t be in hospitals because we have no electricity, and business are operating at very high cost, using diesel. In other words, what is the emergency power supply system has become the normal power supply system – no way! “And as Africa Development Bank, I know that the very blood of Africa’s transmission and life is what we do.”

Sydney schoolgirl 'wired cash to IS'

A Sydney girl, 16, has appeared in court on terror financing charges which carry a maximum term of 25 years' jail.

She is accused of sending thousands of dollars to the so-called Islamic State group in Syria through a Western Union money transfer, reports say.
The girl and a male accomplice, 20, who allegedly gave her the money were arrested in raids on Tuesday.
The pair allegedly met in a park on Tuesday to discuss a plan to send money to Syria that day, reports said.
They had reportedly developed a "sophisticated facilitation path" of wiring funds and had completed successful transfers before.
The man, named by media as Milad Atai, was also arrested during Australia's biggest counter-terror raids in September 2014.

Transfers

The girl is accused of admitting to a police informant that she had wired A$10,000 ($7,600, £5,400) to Syria at the behest of an Islamic State fighter.
She was also allegedly planning to conduct another transfer of A$5,000 when she was caught on Tuesday morning in a park along with Mr Atai, who had handed her the money.
But her lawyer argued that the prosecution's case was based on inferences in her conversations with the police informant and said it may have amounted to entrapment.
Mr Atai faces charges similar to the girl's.
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation said Mr Atai was still under investigation over the death of police accountant Curtis Cheng, who was gunned down by 15-year-old Farhad Jabar.
Police have reiterated concerns over extremists targeting young Australians.
"[It is] disturbing that we continue to deal with teenage children in this environment," NSW Police Deputy Commissioner Catherine Burn told reporters on Tuesday.
