Real Madrid has finally renewed the contract on the line for Andriy Lunin this week, with the Ukraine international pledging his future to Los Blancos for the next six years. However, it is not set whether the 25-year-old will be here long-term.
Lunin was out of contract next summer, and was months away from being able to negotiate a free agent move elsewhere. He is now competing for a starting spot with Thibaut Courtois for the starting spot, but Matteo Moretto explained that if an offer, big in size or stature, comes for Lunin, the Whites could consider letting him go. If Lunin asks Real Madrid to consider it, then they will respect his wishes.
Although it can be a problem that Real Madrid need to face next summer, the equation is much more in his favor now. They are no longer at risk of losing Lunin for free, but they will have either a strong back-up for Courtois, or a reasonable transfer fee that they can reinvest as they wish.
