Forgotten Real Madrid star to train with club’s reserves | OneFootball

A long-forgotten Real Madrid player is set to begin training with the club’s Castilla outfit over the days ahead.

That’s according to The Athletic, who point towards Reinier Jesus as the player in question.

Reinier, for his part, has spent the last five years out on loan away from Spain’s capital.

After being brought in all the way back in 2020 from his home country of Brazil with lofty expectations on his shoulders, it is safe to say that the 23-year-old has since failed to live up to the hype.

In fact, Reinier is yet to take to take to the pitch at senior level in Real Madrid’s colours on even a solitary occasion.

This past season, the attacking midfielder plied his trade in Spain’s 2nd division, with Granada.

After the parties went their separate ways following the expiration of his loan terms, however, Reinier finds himself in a familiar situation, back in Madrid with no part to play.

Talks, in turn, will soon be opened with the player’s agent, over a likely permanent parting of ways before the summer is out.

In the meantime, though, Reiner will maintain fitness with Los Blancos’ reserves.

As per a report from The Athletic:

‘Real Madrid midfielder Reinier Jesus will train with the club’s reserve team, Real Madrid Castilla, amidst uncertainty over his future at the club.’
