Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos reportedly informs his teammates that the Spanish champions have signed Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos has reportedly told his teammates that the Spanish champions have signed Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Los Blancos have long been linked with a move for a new stopper, despite current number one Keylor Navas impressing for the La Liga giants over the last couple of seasons.

Last month it was claimed that Real Madrid were close to signing Kepa, 23, with the goalkeeper's contract at San Mames due to expire at the end of the 2017-18 campaign.

According to Diario Gol, the deal has been completed, and the Madrid squad have been made aware of the move by club captain Ramos.

The Spaniard has featured in 13 of Bilbao's 14 La Liga matches at the start of the 2017-18 campaign, and is widely regarded as one of the best young goalkeepers in European football.

The deal is expected to go through when the January transfer window opens for business.
