Real Madrid all set to pay buy-out clause for Kepa Real Madrid Move could be sealed with opening of transfer window

Kepa's move to Real Madrid is set to pick up speed in the following days with the opening of the transfer window as the Bernabeu club will be allowed to sit down and negotiate with the goalkeeper with his contract ending in the summer.

What is clear is that there will be no talk between clubs as Athletic have made it clear that the player can only leave if his buy-out clause of 20 million euros is paid.

The policy of Los Blancos president Florentino Perez to pay more than the cuy-out clause such were the cases of Ceballos and Betis will not happen unless Athletic president Urrutia does decide to enter into talks.

However, so far Urrutia is following the same path that he took with Javi Martinez and Ander Herrera.

For Zinedine Zidane he is keen to have the player available as soon as possible so that he will be able to compete with Keylor Navas for the first team place.

The recent injury for Kepa has meant that there is less haste to conclude the deal up until now, along with the complaint from Atletico Madrid over the way that Barcelona have pursued Antoine Griezmann, which has also led Real to act with caution.
