The winner of the Europa League turned to Real Madrid to arrange the transfer of Lunin

spanish “Villarreal» entered the transfer market in search of strengthening the goalkeeping position, as the head coach of the “yellow submarine” is dissatisfied with the current goalkeepers. This was reported by Okdiario.

The winner of the Europa League 2020/21 is interested in the services of a player of the Ukrainian national team Andrii Luninwhose contract belongs to Real Madrid.

Villarreal are looking for a new goalkeeper and have once again approached Madrid about Lunin’s future transfer. The team signed Luis Junior from Portuguese club Famalicao for €12 million this summer, making him the most expensive goalkeeper in the club’s history, overtaking Arnau Tenas, who was paid €2.5 million to Paris Saint-Germain.

None of them could provide stability in the goal of Marcelino’s team. On the contrary, the situation was completely different. The unsatisfactory performance of both goalkeepers was one of the main reasons for Villarreal’s failure in the Champions League.

That’s why Marcelino and the club’s management turned their attention to Lunin, a young goalkeeper with European experience and the ability to handle the pressure of playing for Real Madrid, the source said.

Lunin’s contract expires in June 2030, and his transfer fee is 15 million euros. In the current season, the 26-year-old Ukrainian played two games in which he conceded five goals.
