According to Sky Sports via GOAL, Spanish side Real Madrid are interested in signing Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga this summer.

Real Madrid have Kepa as a potential signing after first-choice stopper Thibaut Courtois suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury and will undergo surgery in the coming days. 

Kepa is also attracting interest from German champions Bayern Munich.

Courtois’ injury leaves Madrid with Andriy Lunin, 24, as Carlo Ancelotti’s only available goalkeeper, just two days before Madrid’s 2023-24 La Liga campaign begins. He has played just 17 times for the Spanish side and his relative lack of experience may have led them to look in the transfer market for a new stopper.

Courtois has been a standout performer for Madrid since signing from Chelsea in 2018.
