Real Madrid Eyeing Girona’s Miguel Gutierrez After Standout Performance Against Barcelona
Girona’s emphatic victory against Barcelona not only left a lasting impression on the La Liga standings but also caught the attention of Real Madrid, who are reportedly eyeing a potential move for one of Girona’s standout performers, Miguel Gutierrez.
Playing a crucial role in Girona’s dominating performance, Gutierrez showcased his skills as a dynamic left-back, penetrating Barcelona’s midfield and netting a spectacular goal with a precise strike. The 20-year-old Spaniard has been a consistent presence in Girona’s lineup since joining the club two summers ago for €4 million.
Real Madrid holds a unique position with Gutierrez, as they possess an option to buy him back for just €8 million. This option significantly favors Real Madrid over other interested clubs, as the buy-back clause for external teams stands at €40 million. If another club expresses interest in signing Gutierrez, Real Madrid must be informed, and they will receive 50% of the sale if they choose not to exercise their buy-back option.
The situation puts Real Madrid in a favorable position, potentially allowing them to secure Gutierrez at a lower cost and potentially make a significant profit if they decide to sell him on. While Gutierrez has excelled in his current role at Girona, it remains to be seen how Real Madrid would integrate him into their squad, especially with reported pursuits of Alphonso Davies for the left-back position in the upcoming summer transfer window.
