Latest news on Real Madrid: the white club would be interested in JJ Gabriel, a 15-year-old forward from Manchester United who has formally requested to leave the English entity, as confirmed by AS.

The player and his representatives have asked United to cancel his registration immediately to become a free agent. However, the English club believes that Gabriel remains linked until the end of the season and is still working to try to resolve a situation that arose this week.

Real Madrid tries to convince JJ Gabriel's environment

Real Madrid is attentive to an opportunity that may arise in a matter of weeks. Gabriel has an Irish passport and, once he reaches 16 years old, could take advantage of one of the exceptions provided by FIFA regulations for international movements of minors to the European Union territory, provided that the established requirements are met.

The financial aspect comes into play in this context. The information surrounding the operation suggests discussions with the agent and the family to establish the conditions of a future contract, including a bonus that could be part of an economic agreement.

The amount would be linked to his joining once the movement can be formalized. Currently, these are just discussions and verbal agreements, so the next steps depend on both Manchester United's exit and compliance with the regulations applicable to a minor footballer.

JJ Gabriel has asked to leave Manchester United

JJ Gabriel has accelerated events by requesting to leave Old Trafford. Manchester United received a formal request this week to cancel his registration, even though the club planned to bring him closer to the first team and was considering including him in the League Cup squad against Brighton.

He has also started this season with an impact in Europe. On September 10, he scored three goals in United's 5-0 victory against Sabah in the UEFA Youth League. In that competition, he has 3 goals in 90 minutes so far.

The competition is not limited to Real Madrid. Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and other European clubs are monitoring the striker's situation, while Manchester United is trying to prevent his departure.

The next milestone will be October 6, when Gabriel turns 16 years old. Until then, Real Madrid must progress with his environment and wait to see how his request to leave United is resolved before United can convince the player to stay at Old Trafford.
