Real Madrid continues to be interested in everything that happens in the transfer market, especially with the first rumors ahead of the winter transfer window that could bring some surprises to the Santiago Bernabéu.
Although Real Madrid are not planning any moves in this season’s transfer market, several players will be on the exit ramp to leave the Santiago Bernabéu permanently. One of them, put forward by the hundreds of rumors that have surrounded him almost since the start of the season, is Luka Modric . Despite everything, the Croatian’s entourage makes it clear that the intention is to exhaust the current contract with the merengue entity.
The player who will already have a European player is Andriy Lunin. The Ukrainian goalkeeper arrived five years ago, at the same time as Thibaut Courtois, as a substitute goalkeeper for the Belgian goalkeeper, a role he performed perfectly. However, his limited playing time in these five years was limited by injuries to the Merengue No. 1.
The situation reached a breaking point at the end of the 22/23 season, with Lunin himself admitting: “I thought about leaving because I wasn’t playing, but when you think a little about leaving Madrid, you don’t do it because I wasn’t playing.” “I am fulfilling a child’s dream.” This attempt yielded nothing, but Lunin saw the opportunity to prove himself as a key player after the unfortunate injury suffered by Thibaut Courtois.
Secure future
However, Real Madrid changed course of action and entered the 2023 summer transfer market for the final time to make Kepa Arrizabalaga’s arrival official. Many, including Lunin himself, understood that this move put an end to his new ownership. This is how it has been: So far, the Basque goalkeeper has been responsible for defending the white goal in all the matches played since the third round of the league, his first appearance as a merengue goalkeeper.
Being a replacement goalkeeper does not please Lunin, who will take advantage of the end of his contract to sign as a free agent for Glasgow Celtic. According to information published by the Daily Record newspaper, the Ukrainian will learn of the interest of the Scottish team and will wait impatiently for the end of the season to leave the Santiago Bernabeu forever.
