Arrizabalaga unfazed with links to Arsenal

Athletic Bilbao ‘keeper, Kepa Arrizabalaga, is “keeping calm” despite rumours of a transfer to Arsenal.

Amid interest from Real Madrid and Arsenal, Arrizabalaga has kept quiet about the transfer links.

The 23-year-old is one of the most promising goalkeepers in football, who recently got called up to the Spanish national side and his great performances in La Liga has got the two European giants interested in bringing him into the club, with their respective ‘keepers being 30-years-old or above.

The Athletic Bilbao man has a €20m release clause in his current contract, which Real Madrid are looking to trigger in the next transfer window.

As quoted by the Daily Mail, he said this:

My only focus right now is with the national team, there’s nothing more I can say other than I am a player for Spain and for Athletic Club, nothing else matters to me. Of course I know of the rumours, I can see them and hear them, you know they exist but I know my situation better than that. They don’t make me nervous and I’m keeping calm.
