Thibaut Courtois infuriates Chelsea fans by kissing Real Madrid badge

Thibaut Courtois hasn't covered himself in glory with the way in which he has forced his move to Real Madrid this summer.

The 26-year-old had his heart set on a switch to the Bernabeu once Madrid's interest became known and finally got his wish as the La Liga giants reached an agreement earlier this week.

Chelsea subsequently signed Kepa Arrizabalaga in a world-record move for a goalkeeper to replace Courtois but it was far from an ideal scenario, with the Blues' Premier League opener with Huddersfield just around the corner.

You can't blame Courtois for wanting to join arguably the biggest club on the planet but going AWOL isn't the best way to repay a club which has paid your wages for the last seven years.

And Courtois managed to wind up Chelsea's fanbase further still as he was officially unveiled by Madrid at the Bernabeu on Thursday afternoon.

The Belgian, who won the Golden Glove at this summer's World Cup, kissed Madrid's badge in front of the supporters in attendance.

'Today I am realising a dream. This is the best club in the world,' Courtois said after completing his move to Madrid.

Unsurprisingly, Courtois' decision to kiss the badge infuriated Chelsea supporters who took to Twitter to make their feelings known and Atletico Madrid fans weren't too happy about it either.

Here's how they responded to the Belgian's actions... (WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE)
