DBasia.news – The sales of players such as Marcos Llorente, Theo Hernandez, Mateo Kovacic, was carried out by Real Madrid to balance the balance sheet to avoid the FFP (Financial Fair Play) violation. Moreover, Madrid has spent 300 million euros this summer.
In addition to releasing their players permanently, the club which owns 33 La Liga titles has also lent several players to other clubs, Sergio Reguilon, Achraf Hakimi and finally Luca Zidane officially left the Santiago Bernabeu on loan.
Stacking in the goalkeeper sector also has made Los Blancos be forced to lend one of their goalkeepers, Andriy Lunin. According to reports from Football Espana, the Ukrainian goalkeeper will soon join another La Liga club, Real Betis.
This step was allegedly taken by Madrid as they thought that Lunin still needed additional experience and many opportunities to play, especially after his loan period with Leganes in the 2018/19 season did not go well. He even only appeared in four matches and failed to shift Ivan Cuellar.
This news has also strengthened the allegations that Keylor Navas, who had previously been linked to leaving the club, will finally stay, while the position of the main goalkeeper from the 2019/20 season will belong to Thibaut Courtois.
Lunin’s opportunity to become the main goalkeeper of Betis also seemed to be wide open, as the club based at Benito Villamarin had just lost their flagship goalkeeper, Pau Lopez who chose to leave to Italy and join AS Roma.
