Kepa Arrizabalaga is now officially Thibaut Courtois' replacement.

Kepa Arrizabalaga was officially presented as a Real Madrid goalkeeper. After Thibaut Courtois' injury, Real Madrid was forced to buy a top goalkeeper, and chose the former Chelsea goalkeeper. Today, the goalkeeper was presented and already said the first words about him as a Real Madrid player.

A presentation that began with the words of Florentino Perez, who told Kepa the following: "Your desire to play for the best club in the world, which modestly, I think is Real Madrid, has brought you here." After the president's words, Kepa's turn began, who commented on his wish out loud.

“This club is legendary. I hope that with my performances Real Madrid will decide to keep me after the loan”. Thus, Kepa Arrizabalaga began by winning over the Real Madrid fans, who for the most part are happy with the signing and fully trust the goalkeeper.

What else did Kepa say?

"The decision has been very easy. I had other important offers but Real Madrid is Real Madrid. It was quite fast, a couple of days ago. After training, I had a call. That's where everything started, it accelerated and it was quite fast I was with my wife and we were both happy."
