It’s been a busy day in the Real Madrid offices. Real Madrid have been looking for a replacement for Thibaut Courtois since midday, after he picked up an injury in morning training on Thursday. In the last few hours many names have come up, such as Kepa, De Gea, Keylor Navas and Bono.

The Moroccan seems, without a doubt, to be the best placed to reinforce the goalkeeping position for Real Madrid. According to Melchor Ruiz on COPE’s El Partidazo, the Sevilla goalkeeper is the most likely to join Real Madrid. The Morocco international would be delighted to join the Santiago Bernabeu, and Sevilla would not ask for an astronomical amount to sign him.

The only problem Bono would have is the upcoming Africa Cup, which will take place in Ivory Coast next January, an important part of the season. Real Madrid would even consider asking him not to go to the tournament considering the importance he would have in the squad. In Sevilla they still don’t know anything.

De Gea, the name that does not convince Ancelotti

De Gea’s name has also come up in the last few hours, remembering how he was so close to joining Real Madrid in 2015 and that he is a free agent after Manchester United decided not to renew him. However, it seems like an option with few options.

According to Miguel Ángel Díaz on COPE’s El Partidazo, the Spaniard does not convince Carlo Ancelotti, and it would be him who would veto the option of signing him even if it was for free.
