And as alluded to above, this week, this potential joining of forces has moved a step closer. As per a report from Real Madrid insider Mario Cortegana of The Athletic:

‘Fulham are in talks to sign striker Gonzalo Garcia from Real Madrid.

‘The potential move would see the 22-year-old follow new Fulham head coach Alvaro Arbeloa, regarded as his football mentor and actively involved in discussions, from Madrid to west London.’

It is also noted that, though José Mourinho is a fan of Gonzalo’s talents, the Portuguese cannot guarantee him consistent starting minutes for next season. The final decision on his future will therefore be left up to the player himself.
