OFFICIAL: Kepa will wear number 25 at Real Madrid.

Real Madrid's latest signing, Kepa Arrizabalaga, is set to make his mark wearing the iconic number 25 jersey. It used to be worn by Casillas and Courtois, who suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in training which could rule him out until the end of the season. 

Here is what Kepa has said on joining Real Madrid.

"Hello everyone! Thank you President for bringing me here. I want to say something for Militao, Courtois and Arda Güler. I want to send them a huge hug and wish them a good recovery."

"I am facing this challenge with great enthusiasm. Work and commitment will not be lacking every time I wear this shirt in training sessions or matches. Hopefully we can further expand Real Madrid's list of winners and make the legend even bigger."

"I can assure you I'm here to work and give my best. Always. I hope it will be a great journey here and win many titles. Thank you everyone, Hala Madrid!"
