Kepa's Getafe Future Uncertain

Kepa arrived at the Coliseum last season for a modest fee from Sevilla, but managed just five Liga starts, ten substitute appearances, and two goals.

With Soldado signing for the Azulones this summer the ex-West Ham man's chances of first team action are set to decrease further, meaning that a loan may be on the cards.

Getafe's management are thought to be eager to give the 24-year-old some extra first team action, and as such they are courting the interest of Málaga and Valladolid.

However neither of these sides has yet proved willing to take on the player's entire wage bill, which is apparently the sticking point of any potential deal.

Indeed it is thought that if neither of the clubs relent and offer to pay his salary in full then Kepa will have no choice but to fight for a first team place alongside the likes of Ikechukwu Uche, Manu del Moral, Juan Angel Albín, and of course Soldado.
