Real Madrid
have tied up a deal to sign Levante goalkeeper Keylor Navas following
his outstanding World Cup campaign with Costa Rica.
The
27-year-old helped Costa Rica progress from a tricky group including
England, Italy and Uruguay but was unable to stop his country from
falling to a penalty shootout defeat against Holland in the
quarter-finals.
World Cup hero: Keylor Navas was one of the stars of the tournament during his time in Brazil
Number one: Navas was first choice for Costa Rica but will he be at Real Madrid?
However
Navas will be in dreamland as his fine performances in Brazil have
alerted the attention of Real Madrid who have subsequently met Navas'
€10million release clause.
His
transfer to the Bernabeu comes just days after Levante president Manuel
Quico Catalan said there was 'nothing in it' when he was asked about
speculation linking Navas with a move to Real Madrid.
