| Kepa Arrizabalaga of Real Madrid lifts the UEFA Champions League Trophy after his team’s victory during the UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Final match between Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid CF at Wembley Stadium on June 01, 2024 in London, England. |
Real Madrid is eyeing Chelsea’s Kepa Arrizabalaga as a potential replacement for Andriy Lunin, should the Ukrainian goalkeeper depart this summer accroding to various sources including Revelo and AS. While Thibaut Courtois remains the undisputed number one, the coaching staff is keen on securing a reliable backup who can step up when needed.
Lunin, who has shown glimpses of his enormous potential this past season in Courtois’ absence, is reportedly seeking more regular playing time. If Lunin decides to move on, Real Madrid sees Kepa as an ideal candidate to fill the void. Kepa, despite losing the starting position to Lunin last season, left a positive impression on the coaching staff and the dressing room with this exemplary attitude on and off the pitch.
Real Madrid’s interest in Kepa underscores the club’s strategy to maintain a deep and competitive squad across all positions. While negotiations are on hold waiting for Lunin’s final decision on a renewal, this potential transfer could be a win-win for both parties—providing Lunin with the playing time he desires and offering Kepa the extension he desired at the world’s most prestigious club.
