Real Madrid managed to achieve its first victory this season at home against Valladolid in the second round of La Liga, as Real Madrid began its campaign to defend its title strongly after a disappointing draw against Real Mallorca.
In the last hours of the summer Mercato, Real Madrid wants to settle the controversy over the departure of some of its stars in order to add more stability, especially in the last days of the Mercato.
The Italian Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach, announced the fate of Ukrainian goalkeeper Andriy Lunin with the royal team after news circulated about the possibility of his departure in the current summer transfer period.
Ancelotti responded, in the press conference following the end of the Real Madrid and Valladolid match today, to a question about goalkeeper Lunin’s position.
Ancelotti confirmed that Lunin will continue with Real Madrid and will not leave as some expected, as he said: “He will stay with us.”
The Ukrainian goalkeeper had entered into advanced negotiations with Chelsea in order to leave, but Carlo Ancelotti’s insistence on the player’s continuation stopped these negotiations immediately.
Real Madrid defeated Valladolid 3-0 in the match that took place on Sunday evening, in the second round of the Spanish League.
