RB Leipzig keeper Peter Gulacsi ‘to move’ to Villarreal as deal takes shape | OneFootball

Kicker reports that former RB Leipzig captain Peter Gulacsi’s proposed move to Villarreal is beginning to take shape. The 36-year-old goalkeeper is preparing to leave the Bundesliga after 11 years with the German club.

Gulacsi faced growing competition from Belgian prospect Maarten Vandevoordt during last season’s training camp. Even so, head coach Ole Werner kept faith and he remained first choice for much of the 2025/26 campaign.

Vandevoordt displaced him in April, signalling a long-planned transition in goal.

Gulacsi then returned to the starting XI on the final matchday, a selection that appeared symbolic of a farewell.

A move to Villarreal would give the veteran continued top-level football and draw his lengthy Leipzig association to a close.
