ACTUAL MADRID NEWSThe 25-year-old’s contract should be renewed because Real Madrid thinks he has enormous potential.-Romano
Although Kylian Mbappe is the main topic of conversation around Real Madrid going into the summer, the team is also working on a number of other significant transactions.
One such operation that the Merengues hope to complete as quickly as possible is goalie Andriy Lunin’s contract extension.
The situation has drastically changed from when it first seemed that the Ukrainian international would be leaving the team due to injury, thanks to a string of excellent performances when Thibaut Courtois was sidelined.
Real Madrid thinks highly of Lunin
Lunin’s contract expires in2025, and Real Madrid has already begun negotiations to extend it in light of the Belgian’s latest injury this week.
Furthermore, according to Fabrizio Romano, Carlo Ancelotti and the Real Madrid coaching staff think the international player from Ukraine has a lot of promise.
In addition, the club’s members have faith that the 25-year-old will keep improving and developing in the years to come.

As a result, everyone is putting pressure on Lunin to extend his contract before it expires in the following year.
The goalkeeper’s current circumstances are quite different from what he was facing not too long ago.
There were doubts about Ancelotti’s level of trust in him, particularly given that the Italian seemed to prefer Kepa Arrizabalaga—a star on loan—in goal over Lunin.
However, the 25-year-old has miraculously turned things around with a few outstanding performances in pivotal games.
Real Madrid is now pressuring him to extend, but it remains to be seen if Lunin will agree to the club’s offer. once all, he might be demoted the next season once Courtois recovers from his injury.
Thus, it will be interesting to see how things progress in the coming weeks on this front.
