'He's ready to play for Real Madrid' - Lunin tipped to have bright future

Leganes goalkeeper Andres Prieto is backing team-mate Andriy Lunin to make it at Real Madrid, insisting that he is good enough to play for Zinedine Zidane's side.

The 20-year-old Ukrainian was signed by the Spanish giants in summer 2018 but was sent out on loan to Liga rivals Leganes shortly after.

His career has yet to take off in La Liga, however, with Lunin currently back-up to 34-year-old Ivan Cuellar and having made just five appearances in all competitions in the 2018-19 campaign.
