Real Madrid Forward Close To Joining Getafe This Summer: Good Move For Everyone Involved? | OneFootball

In a recent report, Marca mentioned that Real Madrid forward Borja Mayoral is close to joining Getafe this summer. It has been claimed that the Spanish striker could leave Los Blancos to join Getafe in a €10m deal during this summer transfer window.

Mayoral’s Impressive Loan Spell At Coliseum Alfonso Pérez

Mayoral experienced a good six-month loan spell at Getafe in the previous campaign as he managed to put in a few eye-catching performances for them in the attacking end of the field. The Spaniard scored six goals and picked up one assist in 18 matches for the Spanish side last season in various competitions.

Still, the 25-year-old struggled to be consistent with his contributions in front of the opponent’s goal based on his average of 0.9 shots, 0.7 key passes and 0.8 dribbles per 90 minutes in La Liga football. Hee was a bit untidy with his ball distribution as well after he made 73.5% of his attempted passes in the Spanish first division (stats via whoscored).

Real Madrid Forward Borja Mayoral Close To Joining Getafe: Good Move For Everyone Involved?

Mayoral can create space for himself to get a few strikes in at goal and is a good finisher in the final third when he is playing with confidence on the pitch.

The Spanish marksman needs to switch clubs if he wants to ensure regular playing opportunities in the coming seasons.

At the moment, Mayoral is surplus to requirements at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium as he has fallen behind Karim Benzema and Mariano Diaz in Carlo Ancelotti‘s pecking order.

Therefore, Real Madrid should think about cashing in on the Spaniard in this off-season as he has clearly struggled to make an impact at the Spanish club.

At 25, Mayoral’s best years are ahead of him, so re-joining Getafe could be a decent career move for the striker. Los Blancos can even benefit from getting his wages off their payroll. Thus, it will be a good move for both the clubs as well as the player if the deal goes through before the end of this transfer window.
