Just five days away from the close of the summer transfer market, Getafe seems poised to finalize a key move to strengthen its attack: the signing of Álvaro Rodríguez, a promising youth player from Real Madrid. This young forward has attracted interest from several clubs throughout the summer season, but the Azulones have taken the lead in negotiations.

Getafe, led by José Bordalás, is looking to bolster its offensive lineup, especially considering that Borja Mayoral is still not fully recovered and the recent Turkish signing, Yildirim, is still adapting to Spanish football. Despite recovering from an ankle sprain suffered during preseason in the United States, Álvaro Rodríguez emerges as an ideal choice for Bordalás, as reported by MundoDeportivo.

Staying in Madrid could be crucial for him

The Azulones are not the only ones interested in the young forward. Teams like Espanyol, Alavés, and the German clubs Wolfsburg and RB Leipzig have also shown interest in Rodríguez. However, Getafe's offer appears to be the most attractive for both the player and Real Madrid. The White Team seeks to secure a deal that could range between 5 and 11 million euros, in addition to retaining 50% of the rights for a future sale.

The opportunity to remain in Madrid is a crucial factor for Álvaro Rodríguez, bringing Getafe closer to securing one of the most promising signings of this end-of-market period. For weeks, Bordalás has been requesting a new forward signing from Ángel Torres as he sees his squad unbalanced, and it seems that finally, the Azulones' president will listen to him.
