Getafe has set an asking price of 18 million euros for Omar Alderete, the Paraguayan center-back who has attracted interest from several clubs, especially from Saudi Arabia, where a financially strong offer has stirred the scene. Despite having a contract until 2028, the defender would not be opposed to changing scenery this summer if the sporting project and the financial offer are appealing.
Alderete was a key player for José Bordalás last season, establishing himself as a starter and showing his defensive prowess, even contributing offensively with some assists. His current market value is around eight million euros, according to Transfermarkt figures, but Getafe's sporting direction, led by Toni Muñoz, believes that his performance and the growing international interest justify a much higher amount.
Has attracted interest from many teams, but Saudi Arabia is pressing
According to EstadioDeportivo, Bologna and several Premier League teams have also closely followed the Paraguayan defender, but the participation of a Saudi team in the bidding has significantly raised Getafe's economic expectations. The operation, still in its initial stage, could accelerate in the coming weeks as formal proposals are finalized.
With the summer transfer market advancing and competition increasing, Getafe is clear that Alderete will only be allowed to leave for a sum that meets their demands. The next move is in the hands of the suitors.
