Real Madrid Confidencial Lunin and Florentino turned down a last-minute offer from a LaLiga club
The Ukrainian goalkeeper could have left Real Madrid in the final hours of the transfer window
Andriy Lunin remains at Real Madrid for another season despite rumors about a possible departure. The Ukrainian goalkeeper will continue at the club and Florentino is pleased to keep counting on him. The president values him highly and is aware that he fulfills his role in the best possible way.
He has a contract in force until 2030, and at the white house, they listen to offers for him, as long as he would like to leave. After all, he is in the shadow of Thibaut Courtois, who is the best in the world in his position, and it is understandable that he would consider starting a new chapter.
However, according to our colleagues at Defensa Central, the goalkeeper turned down a last-minute offer from Girona. The Catalan team wanted to secure his services, but they encountered a refusal from the Madrid goalkeeper. At Valdebebas, they are delighted with his commitment, since they insist that he is an exemplary professional and fully committed to the institution.
This way, Xabi Alonso will continue to count on two reliable goalkeepers. Obviously, Lunin will find it difficult to play regularly, but the man from Tolosa points out that the season is long and the schedule is relentless. One aspect to keep in mind is that Courtois is already over the age of 30, so his "substitute" will be getting more frequent playing time.
In fact, this is what has been happening during these last campaigns. Authorized voices at Valdebebas do not forget the role that the protagonist of this news played in the Fifteenth Champions League. That penalty shootout at the Etihad is now history and will forever remain in the memory of Madridists.
He waits for his moment
He, meanwhile, keeps waiting for his moment and knows that the opportunity to take over could be closer than ever. The technical secretariat, which is in line with the rest of the club, feels that at the white house, they have been very fortunate to have bet on Lunin at the time. Not every team has a goalkeeper with these characteristics.
