Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga: Real Madrid? I take it all easy

Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga insists he's not getting carried away with Real Madrid talk.

Kepa is off contract in June and expected to move to Real Madrid next year.

The Spain international earned a clean sheet in yesterday's 0-0 draw with Real Madrid and was asked about the situation afterwards.

"I try to take it easy, with naturalness, they are football things: every year it usually happens with several players, I'm trying to focus on my training, playing, trying to help the team like today and moving forward," said Kepa.

"I'm calm, I'm still playing, I'm still enjoying the field, which is the most important thing, with my teammates, all together, working ... On Thursday we have a very important game, today's game was also very important."
