Kepa Arrizabalaga, the goalie for Chelsea, is just one of several players they are attempting to move on from, but as of right now, it appears that a reunion with Real Madrid is unlikely.
When Thibaut Courtois recovered from his injury at the end of the previous season, Andriy Lunin replaced Kepa as the Belgian’s backup. Although Lunin has not yet signed a new contract, there has been speculation about his future amid suggestions that he is eager to play a bigger part than he will this upcoming season.
In the meanwhile, if Lunin does decide to depart, Kepa is expected to return to the Santiago Bernabeu, allegedly declining a Saudi Arabian offer to hold off and see what happens with Lunin. However, Carlo Ancelotti has stated that they do not now require Kepa, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.
“We are covered in that position. Kepa performed admirably. Although we were thrilled to have him here, I’m not sure what this season will hold. We adore him.
There don’t appear to be many elite teams searching for a goalkeeper this summer, and although Lunin might be thinking about leaving, the primary problem might be a lack of offers that satisfy both the player’s needs and Real Madrid’s criteria. Although the 25-year-old had a stellar season the previous year, he was also benched by his nation for Euro 2024 following a mistake in the opening game.
