Real Madrid have confirmed Kepa Arrizabalaga has completed a season-long loan move to Spanish side Real Madrid from Chelsea.
Kepa joins the Los Blancos, after an injury to Thibaut Courtois that will keep him out until the end of the season.
A club statement reads: “Real Madrid CF and Chelsea FC have agreed on the loan of the player Kepa Arrizabalaga, who remains attached to the club this season, until June 30, 2024.
“In his five seasons at Chelsea, he has won 1 Champions League, 1 Club World Cup, 1 European Super Cup and 1 Europa League. This year he received the award for the best save in the Premier League for the 2022-2023 season.
“Kepa is international with the Spanish team, with which he has been proclaimed champion of the 2023 Nations League. With Spain, he also won the European Under-19 in 2012.
“Tomorrow, Tuesday, August 15, at 1:30 p.m. at Real Madrid City, the presentation ceremony for Kepa as a new Real Madrid player will take place.
“Next, Kepa will appear before the media.”
Kepa remains the most expensive goalkeeper in the world following his £72million move from Athletic Club in the summer of 2018.
