Everton's goalkeeper Jordan Pickford wants to pursue a career in Chelsea.

Jordan Pickford gave Everton a petition for a transfer to Chelsea, reports beIN Sports.

According to Sky Sports, Chelsea made the goalkeeper of the England team their main candidate for the replacement of Thibaut Courtois, who is close to leaving for Real Madrid.

It is expected that the "blue" will receive for Courtois 35-40 million euros. The relatively low cost of Thibault is due to the fact that he has only one year left on contract with Chelsea.

Chelsea will have to spend a lot of money to get Pickford. 24-year-old goalkeeper joined Everton only a year ago. "Toffee" paid for it Sunderland 28.5 million euros.

The contract between Pickford and Everton expires in 2022.
