Real Madrid could sell Lunin to Arsenal, but they have not yet sent an offer.
The Ukrainian goalkeeper has not yet decided his future, and the Merengue club wants him to decide as soon as possible, so that they can be prepared to sign his replacement.
“Lunin has confirmed to Real Madrid that he will attend the first day of pre-season on July 15. Moreover, the 25-year-old goalkeeper has asked to start training before that date at Valdebebas,” say Rodra and Alfredo, journalists from Relevo.
However, he has not yet responded to Real Madrid’s renewal offer, which would give him the possibility to extend his link with the club until June 30, 2029.
Arsenal are the club most interested in signing Lunin, but they have not yet sent a transfer offer to Real Madrid. The Merengue club wants to give the goalkeeper a deadline of July 15. If he remains without renewing, they will understand that he wants to leave and will start working on the signing of a goalkeeper.
Real Madrid want to keep Lunin, but they cannot offer him the starting position, because Thibaut Courtois is the best goalkeeper in the world. Lunin’s entourage is putting a lot of pressure on him to consider leaving for another European club, where he is sure to be offered the starting position.
This is what is making the goalkeeper doubt. He dreams of succeeding at Real Madrid and knows that as long as Courtois is in the team, he will have a very hard time. That is why he is seriously considering what to do.
