Fulham set to make double swoop from Real Madrid

Fulham are set to complete the signing of two Real Madrid players for a total of around €50 million (approx £42.8 million) according to reports.

New manager Álvaro Arbeloa has pushed for two of his former players in Spain: attacking midfielder César Palacios (valued at €10 million) and striker Gonzalo García (valued at €40 million) according to journalists Mario Cortegana and Guillermo Rai of The Athletic.

Both players have featured under Arbeloa over the 2025/26 season and are now set to follow their former manager to the Premier League.

The 22-year-old García scored eight times for Real Madrid in 39 appearances last season while 21-year-old Palacios made his debut for the first team under Arbeloa back in January, the first of his seven total appearances.
