Real Madrid have secured long-term commitments from two key players. The club has reached an agreement in principle with 17-year-old Joan Martinez, signing him to a three-year contract including a €50 million release clause despite his current ACL injury. Additionally, goalkeeper Andriy Lunin, who had an impressive last season filling in for the injured Thibaut Courtois, has extended his contract until 2028. Lunin had considered leaving but was ultimately convinced to stay, providing valuable depth as Real Madrid aims to defend their La Liga and Champions League titles. This extension also impacts Chelsea's plans, with Kepa Arrizabalaga returning to Bournemouth on loan rather than rejoining Madrid. Both deals reflect Madrid's strategic planning for future squad stability.
