The Blues spent £71.6m to sign the Spaniard in 2018 but he then faced a battle with Edouard Mendy for a place in the starting line-up.
Mauricio Pochettino became head coach this summer and after selling Mendy to Al-Ahli in Saudi Arabia, he wanted to keep Kepa at Stamford Bridge. However, the 29-year-old chose to join Real Madrid on a one-year loan deal.
Kepa is about to leave Real Madrid.
The London team was forced to bring in Robert Sanchez as the new number 1 goalkeeper. Next season, Chelsea will again have competition in the wooden frame. According to AS, Kepa will return to Chelsea at the end of the season.
Real Madrid only decided to sign Kepa as an emergency replacement for Thibaut Courtois, when the Belgian goalkeeper suffered a cruciate ligament injury and missed the entire season.
Real Madrid initially wanted to recruit Yassine Bono from Sevilla instead of Kepa, but the Moroccan goalkeeper ended up joining Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia. In other words, Kepa is not in the White Vulture’s plans after this season.
