Real Sociedad consider move for Real Madrid youth attacker amid interest from Como – report
With Florentino Perez now officially retaining power as the Real Madrid president, things are expected to move swiftly at the Valdebebas.
Recent reports have indicated that Real Madrid are already accelerating the process of signing a new Galactico, with many pointing towards Julian Alvarez being the mystery player.
Even if it’s not Alvarez, the new player could well be a forward, which doesn’t bode well for Gonzalo Garcia, whose chances of making a breakthrough are seemingly depleting.
Real Sociedad interested in Gonzalo
According to Jorge Picon, Real Sociedad are keeping a close eye on Gonzalo Garcia’s situation at Real Madrid.
The Txuri-Urdin are looking for a new striker this summer, and Gonzalo is someone they could target, as they look for a natural goalscorer.
In Orri Orksarsson and Mikel Oyarzabal, Sociedad already boast two gifted forwards. But it appears they want to further strengthen their goalscoring unit, which goes hand in hand with Pellegrino Matarazzo’s attacking football.
Intense competition for Gonzalo
Garcia’s developing situation at Real Madrid has not gone unnoticed elsewhere either, with several clubs already showing interest in signing the La Fabrica sensation.
Como are one of the clubs that have shown interest in the youngster, while Borussia Dortmund, too, are keen on his services.
Real Madrid, for their part, are not ready to offload Garcia at any price and have remained firm on their €60 million price tag. This could potentially rule Sociedad, as well as other clubs, out of the race.
Therefore, it will be interesting to see if Sociedad try to undercut both Dortmund and Como by seeking a loan deal and help Garcia develop his talents in La Liga.

Carlos Espi reacts after scoring match-winning goal in Elche 2-3 Real Madrid: ‘Starting like this is a dream’
Carlos Espi is becoming Real Madrid’s unlikely late-game specialist.
The 21-year-old once again came off the bench to rescue Jose Mourinho’s side, this time scoring the 91st-minute winner in a dramatic 3-2 victory over Elche.
It was his second goal for the club, and both have arrived at crucial moments.
Speaking to Real Madrid TV after the match, Espi could barely contain his excitement.
“I’m so happy—the happiest man in the world. I try to help the team any way I can, and every time I step onto the field, I give it my all and come away feeling great.
“Starting like this has been a dream. This isn’t over yet; we’re going to keep going because we have Sunday’s match coming up.

“This is a team effort. All of us who take the field make the most of our opportunities and give it our all,” he began.
Espi keeps making his minutes count
There is a growing pattern to Espi’s involvement. Even though he has yet to start a match for the first team, that has not stopped him from making an impact.
His first goal arrived against Espanyol in Real Madrid’s opening game, when another late strike helped secure the result.
Against Elche, he was required again after Real Madrid surrendered a two-goal lead and suddenly found themselves in serious trouble.
Espi eventually appeared at the back post in the 91st minute and finished the move to give Mourinho’s team all three points.
The youngster shared the credit with his teammates, but he also had special praise for the player who supplied his decisive moment.
That assist came from Kylian Mbappe, whose presence has made Espi’s route into the starting XI particularly difficult.
“It’s unbelievable—it’s crazy to watch him train and play. In this case, he set me up for the goal, and I’m very happy for him, too.”
First Madrid derby already has Espi excited
The timing of Espi’s latest contribution could hardly be more interesting, as Real Madrid now face Atletico Madrid on Sunday, giving the forward an opportunity to experience his first Madrid derby.
“I’m really looking forward to it—I’m so excited. It’s my first derby here, and we’re going to go for it.”
For Mourinho, Espi is a useful option when matches become chaotic. He may not yet be a regular starter, but his two appearances on the scoresheet have carried considerably more weight than the minutes he has played.
