I think it is not retrieving the key from "https://packages.cloud.google.com/yum/doc/rpm-package-key.gpg"
Ideally it should work with kubernetes.repo file also but it didn't work in my case. So installed using below steps from the official documentation and it was successful.
curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.15.0/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
chmod +x ./kubectl
sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl
