After the free exit of Pau López to Andorra, forgiving the two years he had left on his contract, in Heliópolis they had the task of finding a replacement... And they found one in a direct rival.

Diego Conde arrives on loan until the end of the season with a NON-mandatory purchase option for an amount close to 3.5 million euros.

The 27-year-old Madrid goalkeeper arrives as Alvaro Valles's backup, and we'll see what role Manuel Pellegrini gives him, since he likes to rotate in goal.

On paper, Álvaro Valles starts as the first-choice goalkeeper and it could be that Conde ends up playing some matches in the Champions or in the Copa del Rey, depending on his performances.
