Real Madrid great Fernando Morientes believes Keylor Navas should be considered among the club’s best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Keylor Navas deserves to be recognised as a Real Madrid legend, according to Fernando Morientes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Navas, 33, spent five seasons with Madrid, winning a LaLiga title and three Champions Leagues among numerous other honours before joining Paris Saint-Germain last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Morientes, a Madrid great, believes the goalkeeper should be considered among the LaLiga club’s best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“In the end, for example, at Real Madrid I tell you that he is a legend,” the former striker told ESPN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“A player like him who has participated in great moments in Madrid must be classified as legends, without any doubt.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Navas arrived at Madrid from Levante in 2014 and established himself as the club’s number one after Iker Casillas’ departure the following year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Morientes said Navas’ growth at Madrid had been immense, with the shot-stopper starting in all three of their Champions League final wins between 2016 and 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Keylor Navas came as a substitute player for a great goalkeeper in our history as Iker Casillas was,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Little by little he gained the respect of the entire public, but he was also decisive in great moments in the history of the Bernabeu.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
