Thibaut Courtois has insisted that he has no problem with battling Petr Cech for a spot in the Chelsea team.
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho hinted on Thursday that Courtois was in pole position to become the first-choice goalkeeper following three seasons on loan at Atletico Madrid, but the 21-year-old is eager to work with his Czech teammate.
"Petr has had a really nice 10 years here," the Belgian told Chelsea TV. "He's one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
"Every goalkeeper can have a type of thing they are usually good at so when you see them train you can learn from them. It helps you during your training.
"There will be a battle to be in the starting XI, but that's good. It helps the players to improve themselves to play even better, so that's perfect."
Cech revealed earlier this week that he was not looking to leave Stamford Bridge.
