Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas has said he joined the club last summer to win trophies and enjoy a long and successful career at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The Costa Rican keeper arrived in the Spanish capital from Levante having impressed the Los Blancos hierarchy with a string out eye-catching displays that saw Madrid part with 10 million euros to land their man. He also enhanced his reputation with a great display at the World Cup, helping the unfancied Costa Ricans to a place in the quarter finals.
His move to Madrid has seen him play less football than he’d have liked and he’s had to make do playing second fiddle to Iker Casillas. Rumours have suggested in recent weeks that the shot stopper is looking for a move away from the club with Liverpool a reported destination.
But speaking to La Nacion, Navas said he’s happy at the club and sees a long-term future with the 10-time European Cup winners.
“I like challenges and this is a great one for my career,” he said. “I’ll work with humility to earn my place in the team. I want to win lots of titles with this club. I chose Real Madrid to be here for a long time and I will succeed, I have faith that I’ll get it.”
