Real Madrid Send Goalkeeper Lunin on Loan to Valladolid

Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin​ has been loaned out to Real Valladolid for the upcoming season.

The Ukrainian, signed by the club in June of 2018, spent last season on loan with fellow La Liga side Leganes, but struggled for playing time there as well.

With Thibaut Courtois and Keylor Navas​ both still in the squad for Zinedine Zidane​, chances of seeing the field for Los Blancos this season were slim for the 20-year-old.

Luca Zidane, the son of manager Zinedine and a goalkeeper himself, was also sent out on loan by Real Madrid this season, making it unlikely that Navas, who has been linked with a move to AC Milan, will leave the club this summer.

Ukraine were crowned champions of the Under-20 World Cup after beating South Korea in the final this summer with Lunin awarded the Golden Glove as the tournament's best goalkeeper.
