Real Madrid are passing on a permanent deal for Kepa Arrizabalaga.

The Chelsea goalkeeper joined on-loan in August after Real No1 Thibaut Courtois suffered an ACL injury. The deal included a permanent option.

But Relevo says Real intend to release Kepa back to Chelsea at season's end.

The form of Andriy Lunin has convinced Real's management to choose the Ukrainian over the Spaniard.

Kepa's struggles with injury have also made up the board's mind.
