Real Madrid continues to gain respect from the Ukrainian goalkeepers. As AS reports, the “Royal Club” has signed up with 15-year-old goalkeeper Igor Galdin, who plays for the Levante youth team.

The Ukrainian has already dubbed the Spanish show “the new Andriy Lunin”. Among Galdin's strengths are his sprinting axes, good footwork and quick reactions..

Igor is a student of the Chornomorets Academy Odessa. After the beginning of the large-scale invasion of Russia, it moved to Spain, where it continued to develop in the structure of the Levante. The Ukrainian belongs to the U-14 and U-16 teams, and Nini plays for the U-18.

The club from Valencia has already signed the goalkeeper's first professional contract, with interest from Shakhtar Donetsk and Dynamo Kiev, and plans to continue this.

Galdin may also have completed appearances for the Ukraine U-16 national team - three matches so far (seven goals conceded).

We would like to remind you that Andriy Lunin already plays for the Real Madrid structure, as well as the Ukrainian Illya Voloshin, who plays for the U-19 team.

At about 25 p.m. the team under the leadership of Alvaro Arbelo will play the match of the 1/16 final of the Champions League against Benfica. The first match ended with a victory over Madrid (1:0), thanks to a goal from Vinicius Junior.

Before another match, it also became known about the loss of personnel - Kylian Mbappe would miss the match due to a knee injury.
