Real Madrid are reportedly hoping to finalise the signing of David Soria from Getafe at the end of the season.
According to a report from MARCA, David Soria is a target for Real Madrid as they look to add more depth and quality to their squad. The 30-year-old will likely replace Andriy Lunin if he rejoins Los Blancos in the summer transfer window.
David Soria is a former youth player at Real Madrid, and he is thought to be open to a return this summer. The report claims that Real Madrid have already met with the player’s agents recently, and they have an agreement with Soria. The transfer will be finalised when the two clubs manage to agree on a fee.
The 30-year-old has been a key player for Getafe, and he will add depth and quality to the Real Madrid squad. Soria knows the club well and he should be able to fit in quickly. He is an experienced La Liga goalkeeper with nearly 200 appearances in the competition.
The opportunity to return to his boyhood club will be an attractive option for the player. It remains to be seen whether Real Madrid can agree on a reasonable fee with Getafe in the coming weeks now.
Andriy Lunin is expected to leave Santiago Bernabeu this summer in search of regular playing time and Real Madrid need to find an experienced replacement. They cannot hope to head into the new season with Thibaut Courtois as their only recognised goalkeeper.
It seems that Real Madrid have identified Soria as the ideal target. The report from MARCA claims that Lunin is looking for a club where he will play regularly. So he believes that he will not get those opportunities at Real Madrid as long as Courtois is at the club.
The Ukrainian goalkeeper is highly rated and has a big future ahead of him. It makes sense for him to move on in search of regular playing time. Meanwhile, Soria has a contract with Getafe until the summer of 2026 and could cost a premium this summer. It will be interesting to see how the situation pans out in the coming weeks.
