Real Madrid is delighted to announce the completion of signing Spain goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga from Chelsea on a season-long loan.

"Real Madrid and Chelsea FC have agreed on the loan of player Kepa Arrizabalaga until June 30, 2024," the Spanish club said in a statement.

Belgian star Courtois, 31, will miss most of the season after rupturing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.

Kepa, 28, had been close to a transfer to Bayern Munich, but will instead return to his native Spain. 

The Spain international, Kepa joined the Blues in a £71.6m switch from Athletic Bilbao in August 2018, and has committed to stay with Real Madrid until June next year.

Kepa is an international with the Spanish team, with which he has been proclaimed champion of the 2023 Nations League. With Spain, he also won the U19 European Championship in 2012.
