€30m bombshell? BVB get serious in García race | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund are now getting serious. The Bundesliga club is stepping up its pursuit of Real Madrid’s Gonzalo García and has submitted an initial offer for the 22-year-old striker.

After his rapid rise, García has fallen out of favour at Real Madrid. Under current coach Álvaro Arbeloa (43), the versatile attacker, who is comfortable both centrally and out wide, is virtually no longer in the picture. The lack of prospects in a star-studded attack makes a change of scenery unavoidable if he is to kick-start his stalled development again. According to fichajes.net, despite a contract running until 2030, the club’s management is therefore looking to part ways.

Both sides would benefit from a transfer. Spain’s U21 international would get playing time, while Los Blancos could look forward to a hefty financial compensation.

Real insist on clause

Those in charge at Borussia Dortmund are apparently convinced that García’s qualities make him an ideal fit for BVB’s system. The reported offer of €30 million is a clear sign of the faith they have in the Real professional’s abilities. In the Bundesliga, the youngster could finally make the definitive breakthrough that has so far eluded him at the Spanish record champions. In the race for the striker, the Black and Yellows are reportedly in pole position.

Although Real Madrid are willing to let García leave, the capital club do not want to give up control over the player entirely. Accordingly, Los Blancos are seeking either a buy-back option or a share of any future resale. A deal is considered to have a good chance of going through — provided the terms are right. The forward himself is pushing for a move in order to get his stalled development back on track elsewhere. A stay in Chamartín is therefore considered almost out of the question.

So far, García has made 46 competitive appearances for Madrid, scoring 11 goals and providing four assists. He has also played 73 times for Real’s second team, finding the net 30 times for Castilla.
