Chelsea dismiss summer’s move for Andriy Lunin

After zeroing on Filip Jorgensen as the goalkeeping reinforcement, Chelsea will not launch the effort to sign 25-year-old Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.A Mundo Deportivo Spanish article claims that Andriy Lunin is no longer of interest to Chelsea. The West London team debated whether to sign the summer transfer window Real Madrid goalkeeper. With Filip Jorgensen as their top goalkeeping target, the Blues have decided against a move for the 25-year-old, though.

The Andriy Lunin narrativeAndriy Lunin had to wait before proving his mettle at Real Madrid. Although the Ukrainian international has been with Los Blancos for half a dozen years, only regular game time at the Santiago Bernabeu in the 2023/24 season.

A lucky turn of events boosted Lunin’s case when injuries to Thibaut Courtois and Kepa Arrizabalaga provided him the window of opportunity to nail the first-choice goalkeeping slot for much of the 2023/24 season. Although he gave up 32 goals, the player maintained 12 clean sheets in 31 games across all divisions.

After signing the last 12 months of his deal, the 25-year-old finds his future at Real Madrid dubious halfway through the summer transfer season unclear. Not overlooked, the matter has attracted the attention of various Premier League bigwigs, including Chelsea.

London speaking?Chelsea has reasonable curiosity in Andriy Lunin. With Kepa, Robert Sanchez, and Djordje Petrovic failing to establish a compelling case for becoming the first-choice goalkeeper at Stamford Bridge, the Blues have been hunting the market for a keeper heading into the summer transfer window.

Thus, various goalkeepers have caught Chelsea’s eye; Lunin is a good target for West London team. The Blues have decided against a bid for the 25-year-old Real Madrid goalkeeper, though, after determining Filip Jorgensen as their main target. They also already have a signed deal for the 22-year-old Villarreal shot-stopper.

Chelsea will thus sign during the summer transfer window a goalkeeper from a La Liga club. But that shot-stopper won’t come from Real Madrid; as we enter the last month of the summer transfer window, Filip Jorgensen will close in on Stamford Bridge.
