The top scorer of Real Madrid wants to leave

According to the latest revelation from Fichajes (Spain), Real Betis has contacted Real Madrid to seek a loan deal for Gonzalo Garcia, the promising youngster who impressed at the FIFA Club World Cup this past summer.

Gonzalo Garcia is one of the highly rated prospects from the Castilla academy and caused a sensation by becoming the top scorer at the recent FIFA Club World Cup. However, at the start of this season, the 21-year-old is struggling to secure a starting position due to Real Madrid's abundance of quality attacking stars.

Sources say that those close to Gonzalo believe a loan move would provide the essential opportunity for him to play regularly, gain experience, and rebuild his confidence.

Real Betis coach Manuel Pellegrini is actively searching for a new striker to strengthen their attack, a position that has been challenging for the team since the season began. The Chilean manager views Gonzalo Garcia as a young player full of ambition with great potential for growth.

Betis sees the loan deal for Gonzalo as a safe and cost-effective solution, helping them deepen their squad and foster healthy competition among their current forwards. Pellegrini believes the addition of this young talent will significantly boost Betis’s attacking force in the second half of the season.

From Real Madrid’s perspective, the club’s management has no intention of selling Gonzalo Garcia permanently. He recently extended his contract until 2030 and is regarded as a “precious gem” for the club’s future.

Real’s plan is for Gonzalo to gain La Liga experience with Betis before returning to Bernabeu with improved maturity and form. Besides Betis, the striker has also attracted interest from Como (Serie A), but Real prefers to keep him in Spain for easier monitoring of his development.

On a personal level, Gonzalo’s long-term goal remains to secure a place in Real Madrid’s first team, but he understands that this can only be achieved through consistent playing time.

If the deal is approved next January, it could be a sensible move benefiting all three parties: Real Madrid, Real Betis, and Gonzalo Garcia himself.
