DONE DEAL: Chelsea keeper Kepa joins Real Madrid

Real Madrid have completed the signing of Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Kepa joins Real on a season-long loan with his media presentation scheduled tomorrow.

He will instantly become Real's new first-choice goalkeeper after Thibaut Courtos suffered an ACL injury last week in training. The Belgian is expected to miss the season.

Andriy Lunin kept a clean sheet for the opening LaLiga win at Athletic Bilbao on Saturday.

However, he will step aside now with Kepa through the doors.
