Real Madrid were thought to be keen to sign the Belgian shot-stopper when he was on loan at crosstown rivals Atletico.
The 22-year-old has been a fundamental part of the Blues' title-winning campaign this term.
But he has sought to quash talk he could leave Stamford Bridge.
I am happy at Chelsea. I have four years on my contract
"I am happy at Chelsea. I have four years on my contract," Courtois said as quoted by the Evening Standard.
"I had great years at Atletico, I could dream thanks to that club, but in my career I always aimed to the top."

However, United have raised their contract offer to £200,000-a-week to retain De Gea's services.
