Real Madrid reach decision on Joselu’s future | OneFootball

La Liga giants Real Madrid have come to a final decision on the future of on-loan striker Joselu.

That’s according to transfer insider Patrick Berger of Sky Germany.

Frontman Joselu is for his part of course in the midst of a hugely productive campaign in Spain’s capital.

Since linking up with Real Madrid from Espanyol on a season-long loan, the veteran striker has racked up 17 goals and three assists.

Making such figures all the more impressive, meanwhile, is the fact that Joselu, throughout the campaign, has acted as a backup option in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad.

And yet, his future at the Santiago Bernabéu continues to draw chatter in the media as being far from certain.

This comes with Ancelotti’s attacking ranks set to be added to by both Endrick and Kylian Mbappé with a view to next season.

If the latest word stemming from the media this weekend is anything to go by, though, then those eager to see Joselu stay put in Madrid in 2024/25 need not fret.

As per the aforementioned Patrick Berger, the Blancos brass have made the call to activate their cut-price option to buy the 34-year-old.

Joselu is expected to put pen to paper on a one-year deal with the La Liga champions.
