Slonina kept nine clean sheets in 25 games for Chicago last season, and if a move to Real Madrid does materialize, he could be loaned back to Chicago for a season or two to develop. Even if Slonina does join Real Madrid now, he would get almost no playing time with the Los Blancos.

Real Madrid and their goalkeeping situation
Madrid’s first-choice keeper is Thibaut Courtois, with Ukrainian keeper Andriy Lunin as his deputy. Courtois recently earned plaudits for his performance against Liverpool in the Champions League final and is one of the best keepers in the world.
On the other hand, Lunin hasn’t shone through at the club, but he is still an exciting young prospect. Still only 23, Lunin has made just 3 appearances for Real Madrid.
