Leeds United are closing in on the signing of Real Madrid goalkeeper Kiko Casilla, with the two sides in advanced talks.
With Leeds currently top of the English Championship, Marcelo Bielsa sees the former Espanyol keeper as the ideal option to strengthen his backline in the final stretch of the season.
Casilla is positive about a possible move and sees Leeds as a great opportunity for first-team football.
The move hinges on the approval of Real Madrid, with the club considering whether to allow the Spaniard to move on a free or to ask for a symbolic fee.
Since the summer arrival of Thibault Courtois, Casilla has fallen down to third in the pecking order between the sticks at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, behind the Belgian and Keylor Navas.
Madrid have no shortage of talented goalkeepers beyond Casilla should they opt to sell, with youngster Andriy Lunin and Luca Zidane options to vacate his position.

Real have shown me that a big club with lots of fans and wins doesn't mean that they guarentee loyalty like the players do. Real have sold many young talents and a legend. Who in their right mind would do something like that?

Has all the right to, but why Leeds
Because we need a new keeper urgently and he will get play time and possibly will be playing in the premier next season, the question I ask you is why not Leeds?

Do you know who this guy is? He's not some second rate keeper. He'd be a huge improvement on what we currently have and wouldn't have a problem being #1 for us should we go up to the Premier League. A good keeper with plenty of experience.
He is no1 goalkeeper for Espanyol before he go to Real Madrid. also he can't any match this year because the two above him is Courtois and Navas. Don't worry he is good goalkeeper with his feet. and suitable for Bielsa gameplay.

I don’t know anything about him but I know Navas is a great keeper. Clearly this guy has to be good to be on that team. They say he hasn’t played for them this year is he playing with their junior team or anything like that ?
how can he play when above him is Courtois and Navas?

We’ve tried for him as a club. All those trophies he won without any significant contribution

It's not that bad. He'll get some playing time and LEEDS will probably be playing in Premiere League next season.

Thanks for all kiko! Never a sports gap, always wet the jersey and never made it talk about him for anything. No one will ever forget your 3 LDC and your arbitrary panel with the 12 LDC! Maybe not the best keeper we've known but has always been respectful / faithful to the club! Great Kiko! Gracias Kiko!
