Carlo Ancelotti raises eyebrows after confirmation of goalkeeper situation at Real Madrid
According to the report from football-espana, one of the big talking points surrounding Real Madrid over the couple of months has involved the goalkeeper situation. Due to Thibaut Courtois’ long-term knee injury, Los Blancos have been left without a staple number one, with Kepa Arrizabalaga and Andriy Lunin having to battle it out to be the regular starter.informationguidenigeria
Kepa was signed from Chelsea to be number one, but a combination of injury and dodgy moments have allowed Lunin in with a chance of taking the jersey. The Ukrainian started against Barcelona in Sunday’s Spanish Super Cup final, and produced an assured performance (he could do nothing about Robert Lewandowski’s goal).JAMB Portal

If you ask the vast majority of Real Madrid fans who they would want in goals for the rest of the season, they would say Lunin. However, Ancelotti’s apparent lack of confidence means that this looks unlikely to be the case, with Kepa getting another chance to establish himself as number one.
