According to a recent report from Fichajes, it has come to light that Getafe have reportedly contacted Real Madrid about the possibility of signing Jesus Vallejo on loan.

It is no secret that the 27-year-old defender could be nearing the end of his time at the club, especially given his limited involvement this season.

His lack of game time has raised the possibility of a move in the upcoming winter transfer window, and Getafe are one of the clubs, apart from Rayo Vallecano, keen to secure his services.

Vallejo needs to leave

Vallejo’s situation at Real Madrid has become increasingly difficult. Despite being a dedicated professional, he has struggled to break into Carlo Ancelotti’s plans, with a wealth of options ahead of him in the defensive line.

His lack of regular minutes has made his future at the club uncertain, and he is now seeking a move to a club where he can play a more significant role.

Getafe see Vallejo as a viable option for their defensive line. The club, which is in need of reinforcements at the back, views the Real Madrid centre-back as an experienced and reliable choice.

Getafe like Vallejo

His knowledge of La Liga and his past performances in the Spanish top flight make him an attractive target. The fact that Getafe have already initiated contact with Real Madrid suggests that they are eager to secure the defender’s services.

The 27-year-old’s time at the club has been marked by a series of loan spells, including stints at Eintracht Frankfurt and Granada.

While he showed glimpses of his potential during these periods, his lack of consistent game time at Real Madrid has hindered his development.

Real Madrid are aware of Vallejo’s need for more playing time and are open to a move in order to help him get back to his best.

Meanwhile, Getafe are working to finalize the deal, and Vallejo himself is awaiting the decision that could shape the next stage of his career.
