Ilya Voloshyn, a 17-year-old Ukrainian goalkeeper, has signed a contract with Real Madrid until the summer of 2026. The pupil of the Novomoskovsk children's and youth school became the second representative of our country in the "royal club", where his colleague Andriy Lunin already plays.
According to Marca, Real Madrid has long been watching the young goalkeeper, who stands out for his 202 centimeters of height and excellent footwork. The Ukrainian attracted the attention of many European teams, such as Lisbon's Benfica and Sporting Lisbon, and Juventus Turin, with his performance for Segunda B team Rayo Mahadaonda.
The Madrid Supercubs see our compatriot as the future number one of the team. At the same time, he will first join his peers. Interestingly, Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is preparing to offer a new deal to Lunin, who has been the main goalkeeper of the capital's team since November.
Voloshyn, who has already arrived in Madrid, played for the Novomoskovsk Children's and Youth Sports School from 2014 to 2019, after which he defended the colors of Dnipro U-17. Last year in May, Ilya played his first match with the Ukrainian U-16 team. The debut turned out to be enchanting - the goalkeeper left his goal locked, and the team won 4-0.
