Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga has revisited his move to Real Madrid.

Kepa is on a season-long loan at Real Madrid, though came close to joining Bayern Munich just days before his move.

He told AS: "The loan to Real Madrid? It all happened very quickly, we closed everything in a few hours, with just two phone calls.

"I had spent five seasons at a big club, Chelsea, I thought a change could be good for me. It's true that there was the Bayern option... but Real Madrid called and I didn't think twice.

"If there were other opportunities before it doesn't matter, what matters is that Real Madrid became a reality last summer.

"I will try to contribute to making Real Madrid's history even greater and to enjoy every minute, every match to the fullest."
