Kepa's crazy declaration of love for Real Madrid

In the columns of Marca, the Spanish international goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga was on fire for his new club Real Madrid.

Faced with the absence of Thibaut Courtois, victim of a cruciate ligament rupture, Real Madrid had to resolve to find him a replacement. And it’s about Chelsea’s Spanish goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, which the vice-champions of Spain have decided to bet. The Basque goalkeeper joined the Santiago Bernabéu this summer on a season-long loan. A choice that the former member of Athletic Bilbao admitted to having had no trouble making. This despite an offer from Bayern Munich, still an orphan of Manuel Neuer until next October. Indeed, for the 28-year-old, joining the Madrid club was one of his deepest aspirations.

“Why did I say no to Bayern? Real Madrid is Real Madrid. And when Real Madrid calls you, it’s easy. (…) I faced this club three times with Chelsea. Every time I came to the Santiago Bernabéu, I always turned left, towards the visitors’ dressing room, but I had only one desire: to turn right towards the Madrid dressing room! », thus entrusted Kepa for brand.
