Navas ametua PSG & Areola yupo Madrid
*PSG Sign Keylor Navas; Areola Joins Real Madrid On Loan
Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas has joined PSG for a reported fee of €15 million (£14m/$17m), while Alphonse Areola has moved in the opposite direction on loan.
The 32-year-old signed for Madrid from Levante in 2014 after impressing at the World Cup in Brazil.
Navas joins the French champions having enjoyed huge success at the Spanish capital club, winning three consecutive Champions League titles, along with one La Liga title and two UEFA Super Cups.
The Costa Rica international also claimed the 2017-88 UEFA Club Football Award for best Goalkeeper, and was named in the Champions League squad of the 2018 campaign, when Gareth Bale's double over Liverpool helped the club to a third successive title.
Navas then lost his number one spot at the Santiago Bernabeu upon the arrival of Thibaut Courtois last summer, and has now joined the Ligue 1 side at the expense of Areola, who has made the switch to Madrid on loan.
France international Areola leaves on a season-long agreement, with no option to purchase coming with the deal
