Real Madrid are reportedly weighing up the possibility of placing young striker Gonzalo Garcia on the transfer market ahead of the upcoming season, as the club continues to evaluate its squad planning for the future.
The Spanish forward, born in 2004, has struggled to find consistent playing time since Arbeloa took charge, and his situation at the Santiago Bernabéu appears increasingly uncertain.

According to Calciomercato, Garcia himself is also open to leaving the club, motivated by his limited opportunities on the pitch.
Juventus, who have been long-term admirers of the striker, are now monitoring the situation and could attempt to take advantage of the growing uncertainty. Real Madrid value the player at €25–30 million for a permanent deal.
Limited opportunities at Real Madrid for Gonzalo Garcia
Gonzalo Garcia’s situation has become more complicated in recent months, with the striker finding minutes hard to come by under Arbeloa.
Despite being regarded as one of the promising young talents from the club’s academy system, the competition for attacking roles at Real Madrid has limited his chances to make a consistent impact.
The lack of regular playing time has reportedly contributed to the player’s growing frustration, leading him to consider a potential departure in search of more stability and development opportunities.
With Real Madrid continuing to rotate and assess their squad depth, Garcia’s future is now expected to be one of the talking points of the upcoming transfer window.

Juventus monitoring a loan option
Juventus are following developments around the Spanish striker and are believed to be considering a move should Real Madrid decide to sanction his departure.
While Los Blancos are reportedly leaning towards a permanent transfer in the €25–30 million range, the Italian giants are more interested in structuring a deal that would begin with a loan, potentially including an option to buy.
This formula would allow Juventus to reduce immediate financial risk while evaluating Garcia’s adaptation to Serie A.
Discussions are expected to intensify in the coming weeks, with both clubs yet to make a definitive decision but showing openness to negotiation, making the situation one to watch as the summer window approaches.
