Keylor Navas should be the starting goalkeeper for Real Madrid according to more than half of the Madridista fanbase.
A new poll carried out by sports paper AS showed that 56% (24,454 votes) believe the Costa Rican should start ahead of Kiko Casilla, who recived 19, 477 votes – or 43%. The other 1% (490 votes) were for Ruben Yanez.
The goalkeeping situation at the the club has been in the press all summer following the departure of Iker Casillas which seemed to pave the way for the arrival of David de Gea from Manchester United.
With the Red Devils demanding a world record fee and Real unwilling to pay that knowing they can sign him on a free next summer, it looks like Navas will stay at the club rather than have to look for his football elsewhere.
The 28-year-old has impress in pre-season, conceding just twice in six games. One of those was a penalty against Manchester City, while he was also beaten by Robert Lewandowksi when Los Blancos player Bayern Munich.
Navas arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu last summer having impressed at Levante. He was named as the best keeper in La Liga in the 2013/14 campaign and went on to have an outstanding World Cup with his country.
