Matteo Moretto gives Football España exclusive information on the latest business dominating the newspapers in Spain, as revealed in Daily Briefing by Fabrizio Romano.
It is now difficult for Andriy Lunin to leave Real Madrid, with only five days left in the transfer window. But when it comes to the question of the renewal of his contract, and indeed his future, it remains unclear.
Initially, in April, Lunin had agreed to an extension of the contract. After the end of the season, when Thibaut Courtois returned to fitness, some situations changed and the renewal was put on hold. I think that in the coming months Real Madrid will try to reach an agreement with his agent Jorge Mendes to move forward with the renewal, but it is still too early to know if an agreement will finally be reached.
One thing is clear, with his contract expiring next summer, Real Madrid will do everything possible lose him for nothing.
Barcelona have sealed the exit of Clement Lenglet on loan to Atletico Madrid, Mikayil Faye's move to Rennes, and Vitor Roque's loan to Real Betis, but we can't definitively close the door when it comes to more spending. One of the remaining possible departures is Eric Garcia, whose situation is not 100% clear, with Girona still interested in him.
Let's see what happens in the final stages of the transfer window. Currently, Barcelona is fully focused on the registration of Dani Olmo. When it comes to possible additions, and us discusses Federico Chiesa and Marc Pubill two days ago, if they do not solve the registration of Olmo, there will be no progress on other actors.
Belgian midfielder Arthur Vermeeren wants to leave Atletico Madrid because he is not playing and does not fit into Diego Simeone's plans. He tried, doing everything he can to impress Simeone, but they are not on the same wavelength.
Vermeeren has already chosen to go to RB Leipzig and now the two clubs are negotiating the appropriate formula for the operation. It is possible that it is a transfer with a compulsory purchase option rather than just a loan, but the deal is currently under development.
