Recently appointed Paris Saint-Germain coach Mauricio Pochettino has heaped praise on goalkeeper Keylor Navas.
Even before the Argentine put pen-to-paper on his contract with the Ligue 1 champions, rumours were doing the rounds linking him with his former captain at Tottenham, Hugo Lloris, yet Pochettino seems more than happy with the Costa Rican shot stopper.
Speaking ahead of the Trophee des Champions clash with Marseille, Pochettino spoke highly of the former Real Madrid goalkeeper.
"We know about him from his time in Spain. It is clear that he is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, it is a true honour to work with him," Pochettino said in his press conference.
"He is a great professional, with great sporting qualities and, after 11 days working together, we are getting to know each other and enjoying seeing what a great goalkeeper he is."

Contract that says Courtois should always be first choice? Seems abit odd.
No not at all... When courtois was signed, navas was already in real madrid first choice so courtois and his agent wants to make sure that courtois be first team gk... Thats why they put that in terms and conditions. Well what you are saying is okay and i also read in an article, its not like i saw the contract papers 😁 but i find it quite logical from courtois's perspective.

First of all zidane didn't sign courtois.. He was signed after zidane left by lopetegui. And according to courtois Contract he should be the first choice gk. Zidane never wanted to sell Navas.. He was a beast under zidane. But two world class gk cannot be in same team.. That's why navas was sold... Not by zidane..and all real madrid supporters still love and respect navas.
