"I feel that I'm key to the team, I'm very happy at Chelsea, and I don't see myself anywhere else."
Asked whether he would play for Real next season, the 24-year-old answered: "No."
Courtois said he would like to extend his deal with Chelsea, which expires in June 2019, but has yet to be offered a contract extension.
He added: "But for the time being, we have not spoken about a contract extension. We are focusing on the league.
"We will see at the end of the season if they offer me something. For the time being, there has not been an offer. I'm happy in London and I'm delighted with the success we are having this season. We are working well with Conte.
"I see that there is a long-term project to win trophies, not just domestically but also in Europe. There is a lot of ambition to play in the Champion League next season."
