Real Madrid is facing a new decision in its youth academy after Celta de Vigo has shown interest in 18-year-old Alexis Ciria, a winger from Castilla. The move comes during the summer transfer window, a day after the player scored in the 2-2 draw against Fiorentina.

So far, no formal offer or conditions from the Galician club have been disclosed. The interest arises as José Mourinho evaluates the young player during the preseason, while the white club designs its roadmap for the 2026-2027 season.

Celta de Vigo Keeps an Eye on Alexis Ciria

Celta de Vigo is looking to strengthen its attack with a young player who can develop within the first team and a competitive structure. Ciria primarily plays as a left winger, but he can also operate on the right due to his ability to attack spaces and seek the area.

The forward was born on January 4, 2008, stands at 1.81 meters, and is tied to Real Madrid until June 30, 2030. This contract allows the club to control any moves and rules out an unauthorized departure during this transfer window.

The potential operation could be considered through a loan, although there are no ongoing negotiations between the clubs yet. Real Madrid will have to assess whether to keep the player in Castilla, give him opportunities with the first team, or provide him with minutes in a LaLiga squad.

Ciria arrived at Valdebebas in January 2026 from Sevilla FC's youth academy. His adaptation was immediate: he debuted with an assist, scored in his first start, and took part in winning the Youth League before joining the first team's preparation.

Alexis Ciria Scores and Secures a Place at Real Madrid

Alexis Ciria's performance against Fiorentina has intensified the focus on his future. Mourinho included him in the starting XI for the friendly match on August 1 in Klagenfurt, and the winger scored the second goal for the white team in the first half.

The academy player played 64 minutes in his debut with the first team. His goal came after a recovery in the opposition's half, helping Real Madrid extend their lead before the Italian side equalized with goals from Roberto Piccoli and Moise Kean.

Mourinho used the game to assess several academy players. Besides Ciria, Mario Rivas, Lamini Fati, and Álvaro Lacosta also debuted, as part of a preseason where the coach must decide which young talents will remain close to the first team.

A Decision Within Real Madrid's Transfer Market

The situation of the winger is one of the pending decisions in Real Madrid's transfer market. The club plans for Ciria to have regular prominence in Castilla, although his performances could lead to occasional call-ups by Mourinho.

A loan to Celta would offer playing time in La Liga, but it would also distance the forward from the daily monitoring of the coaching staff. The Madrid club will need to weigh that possibility against a season in the reserve team and gradual appearances with the senior squad.

The next step depends on Celta de Vigo formalizing its interest and presenting a sporting proposal to Real Madrid. Until a proposal is received, Ciria will continue the preseason with Mourinho and will have new opportunities to establish his position within the Real Madrid transfer market.
