Belgium international Courtois already owns a fleet of supercars, including a Lamborghini Urus, Ferrari Roma and Mercedes AMG G63.

The Real Madrid star also set up Formula 4 team TC Racing last year to compete at events in Spain.

He took delivery earlier this month after waiting TWO YEARS for it to be built to his specification.

Courtois impressed his Real Madrid team-mates at training recently after rolling up in the champagne gold-painted beast.

It has a top speed of 198mph and can go from 0-60mph in 3.14 seconds.

The keeper had it delivered to his Spanish home from Belgian dealership Porsche Centre Brussels.

The motor even has Courtois’ signature painted on a door sill.

Car website KRN Speed raved: “This is more delicious than Belgian chocolate.

“Courtois has owned some pretty amazing cars over the years, but never something extraordinary like a specially commissioned 3 RS.”

Courtois won the FA Cup and League Cup with Chelsea as well as Premier League titles in 2015 and 2017.

He has won eight trophies since joining Real Madrid for £35millon in 2018, including the Champions League and two La Liga crowns.
