According to AS , "Los Blancos" want to welcome back their old player Kepa. The Spanish goalkeeper played at Bernabeu on loan in the 2023/24 season. Kepa and Lunin were fiercely competing for the starting position at Real Madrid, after Thibaut Courtois retired from playing for a long time in the summer of 2023.

Initially, Kepa was favored by coach Carlo Ancelotti to start. However, in the rest of the season, Lunin performed more impressively and pushed Kepa to the bench. Real Madrid also did not renew Kepa, letting him return to the Premier League to play for Bournemouth.

Lunin extended his contract with Real Madrid until 2030 in September 2024, but is considering leaving when Courtois returns. The Ukrainian goalkeeper wants regular playing time to maintain his form. Real Madrid are ready to consider offers for Lunin this summer.

In a recent interview with Sky Sports , Kepa revealed that he had a happy time at Real Madrid: "It was only one year but I enjoyed a lot, including winning two La Liga titles and the Champions League. It's true that I had ups and downs at the club."

According to the Telegraph , Bournemouth are also considering buying Kepa from Chelsea. The Spanish goalkeeper is likely to leave "The Blues" for just £5 million next summer. This is a 1-year early release clause when Kepa signed with Chelsea in the past. Previously, the 30-year-old goalkeeper extended his contract until June 2026.

In the 2024/25 season, the Spanish goalkeeper made 22 appearances in the Premier League and became a mainstay of the club.
