The domino effect. In recent days, Kepa Arrizabalaga’s name has been linked to many European ogres. At Chelsea, already, Robert Sanchez was recently recruited from Brighton to compete with the Spanish goalkeeper. Then, at Real Madrid, with the terrible injury of Thibaut Courtois. Before Bayern Munich jumped at the chance, still orphaned by Manuel Neuer and who saw Yann Sommer join Inter Milan. The waltz of the guardians continues.
A time announced on the side of Bayern, Kepa Arrizabalaga would not have found an agreement with the club of Thomas Tuchel. Worse, according to Sky Sport Germany, the 28-year-old doorman is turning his back on the Germans, despite initial positive contacts. The reason is all found. Meanwhile, Real Madrid has come forward. According to the media, which is also confirmed in Spain, Kepa is on the verge of joining Casa Blanca since an agreement has been reached between the club and the player.
Kepa would be loaned by Chelsea to Real

Priority of the Merengues, as we revealed to you two days ago, the Moroccan should probably have been absent in the middle of the season to play in the African Cup of Nations. A real handicap for brandin addition to the fact that the Basque would be loaned, where the Sevillian would have been the subject of a definitive transfer.
