Yassine Bono it is clear. The Moroccan goalkeeper Sevillewho ran as the favorite yesterday, came really close to accepting an offer from Saudi football… until the real Madrid entered the scene after the serious injury of Thibaut Courtois. The white club combed the market for find a guarantor that assumes ownership from now on because Lunin does not finish transmitting the necessary confidence; and among the names that came to the fore (De Gea, Kepa, Keylor Navas…), Bono was the most complete winner.
Ancelotti: “I am very calm with Lunin, but we have to sign”
Several options appeared on the workbench valdebebas… but the pressure of the 32-year-old goalkeeper, who prefers to continue playing in Europe, has been essential for him to talks between Real Madrid and Sevilla began. A good harmony between both clubs… but that means in no case that the goalkeeper is going to be signed at any price. Bono convinces with his experienced profile, his winning character and his heightsimilar to the style of Courtois.
“We have time until the 31st, behind Lunin the goalkeepers have potential, but they are young. We’ll think about it. Fran is 17 years old, if we sign we will do it by number, because we have confidence in Lunin“, cast doubt Carlo Ancelotti in the press conference prior to the league debut against Athletic in San Mams. A first contact in the Real Madrid City which served to convey a message of confidence to Lunin… but without closing the door to an incorporation: “In the next few days we will see if we put one more goalkeeper in the squad”.
Bono’s fine print
The Moroccan goalkeeper from Sevilla will leave in January for the africa cup and you could get lost up to 13 official matches. A very small print to take into account… since his departure after the Christmas break could have a lot of weight in the negotiations. Bono will not be there for the last day of the first roundwhich is usually held the first days of January.
In addition, until February 11, when the final of the tournament is played, there are marked on the calendar up to five more days of The leaguefour rounds of Copa del Rey (until the first leg of the semifinals) and the Spanish Super Cup (semifinals and final). If Morocco reaches the final, Bono will also be absent for the first leg of the Champions League round of 16which takes place between February 13 and 14.
