Navas Happy At Real Madrid

Keylor Navas insists he is happy at Real Madrid despite his lack of playing time.The 28-year-old goalkeeper has made seven appearances, just three in the Primera Division, since joining the European champions from Levante last summer.The Costa Rica international is a reported target of Premier League sides Arsenal and Liverpool."I feel very calm," Navas told Spanish sports newspaper Marca. "Obviously, one always wants more."I'm not a conformist or someone that gives up easily."I know that the situation is not one that one would like but that is where I need to bring out the best in me and be stronger."It's not the first time in my career that I'm in a position of being an understudy."Spain international Iker Casillas is Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti's first-choice keeper but Navas is determined to become Real's number one in the future.Navas, who started in Thursday's goalless draw against Paraguay in an international friendly in San Jose, said: "I know what path I need to follow in order to obtain the results I want."For me it's a privilege to be at Real Madrid and I try to prove day after day the reasons why they signed me."I have a great rapport with all my team-mates and the team welcomed me with open arms from the first day I got here."I have received the confidence that one needs in order to feel calm."Navas, whose crucial saves helped Costa Rica reach the quarter-finals of the World Cup in Brazil last year, is tied to the Merengue outfit until June 2020.
