Indeed, according to BILD, VfB Stuttgart are the team that are set to sign Chema Andres from Real Madrid’s reserve team.

The 20-year-old defensive midfielder will help Real Madrid pocket a transfer fee of €3 million and is already in Germany to complete the operation.

The youngster is expected to receive a long-term contract with the Bundesliga club.

In addition, Matteo Moretto states that Chema had offers from La Liga, but wanted to move to Germany and Real Madrid agreed with it as they believe the Bundesliga is the ideal place for his development.

Chema joined Real Madrid from the Levante youth academy in 2018 and made steady progress through the ranks at La Fabrica.

The Spanish Under-20 international made 35 appearances for Castilla, in which he has three goals.

Chema also featured three times for the Real Madrid first team, having made his debut in January earlier this year. The youngster was a part of the squad for the FIFA Club World Cup under Xabi Alonso but did not get any minutes.

Even though there are three years left on his contract, Chema will now move on from Real Madrid in the hope of kickstarting his professional career in Germany.

Los Blancos will get €3 million in transfer fees, and it is likely that they will secure a future sell-on clause and buyback option for the promising midfielder.
