Juanmi and Getafe could extend their bond beyond this season. The Malaga-born forward, who joined the azulón team on loan from Real Betis, is getting closer to staying at Coliseum Alfonso Pérez permanently. The agreement between the clubs includes a clause that obliges the Madrid club to purchase the player if they secure their place in La Liga, something that, as of today, seems quite likely given the team's good results.
The price Getafe will pay for Juanmi
Since his arrival, Juanmi has adapted to the coach's demands and has delivered a notable performance, providing experience, mobility in attack, and a lot of willingness. Although he didn't start as an undisputed starter, his constant effort and goal-scoring instinct have made him a valuable piece in the offensive rotation. Getafe values his commitment and the balance he brings to the group, in addition to his experience in a squad with several young players.
For Real Betis, the operation represents a logical move. The attacker wasn't getting playing time under Pellegrini's scheme and his future prospects within the green and white club were limited. The sale will allow the Andalusians to free up wage bill and close a period that had its ups and downs, yet where Juanmi had some standout moments, especially in the season of European qualification.
Everything indicates that Getafe will pay the agreed two million euros to secure ownership of the Andalusian forward. The team's progress in this final stretch of the championship will determine the timing, but those close to the player also express satisfaction with the environment, the team, and his role in the sports project. Therefore, Juanmi could be on the verge of a permanent change of scenery.
