Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin (25, Ukraine) is reportedly thinking positively about a transfer while receiving attention from Alnasr. It is shocking to think that he was likely to renew his contract with Real Madrid at first, and that he is still considering leaving the European stage for Saudi Arabia at the young age of 25.
According to Spanish media Pichahes on the 14th (Korea time), Lunin, who has less than a year left on his contract with Real Madrid, is drawing attention as he is on Alnasr’s recruitment list. Although Alnasr has not officially sent a transfer offer, Lunin is reportedly willing to respond to the negotiations as he shows positive intentions to Alnasr.
It is a reversal considering that Lunine had been continuing to accompany Real Madrid until last April. Real Madrid planned to offer Lunine a long-term contract until 2028, promising him a weekly salary and bonus increase, which was better than expected last season. The prevailing observation was that Lunine would also stay as he accepted the contract renewal offer.
Lunine, however, wants to leave Real Madrid as he changes his mind in the next two months. He wants to be guaranteed regular playing time, but he is said to have made the decision at the end of last season as Thibaut Courtois (32) of Belgium is expected to be pushed back to the bench as soon as he returns from tearing his left anterior cruciate ligament. 안전놀이터
On top of that, some argued that Lunin was disappointed by the decision of Carlo Ancelotti (65, Italy), Real Madrid coach, and decided to transfer. It is disappointment that Courtois left from the beginning of the season last season, and even Kepa Arrizabalaga (29, Spain), who joined on loan, was on the injured list due to a muscle injury in his right thigh, and was turned away again even after completely replacing their empty seats.
In particular, Lunine was known to have been in a slump as he did not understand coach Ancelotti’s decision when Courtois was selected as a starter in the final against Dortmund after showing good performances in the quarterfinals against Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League (UCL).
After making his professional debut in Dnipro in 2016, Lunine joined Real Madrid in 2018 after playing for Zorya Luhansk. However, he gained experience while living on loan at Leganes, Real Valladolid, and Real Oviedo because he did not have a chance to play among his outstanding competitors. He played in 48 games (51 goals) for Real Madrid.
