Team Talk reports on Real Madrid's openness to selling Fran Garcia to fund their pursuit of a new player. Real Madrid are open to selling Fran Garcia to help fund their pursuit of a new player in his position. Both Atletico Madrid and Rayo Vallecano are interested. Real Madrid want €20m before they sell their homegrown star.

Real Madrid have reportedly placed a €20million price tag on Fran Garcia, even though his market value is estimated to be around €15million. Atletico Madrid are considering the possibility of acquiring Garcia to bolster their defensive lineup. His knowledge of the capital and his versatility make him an appealing option for Diego Simeone’s tactical approach. Nonetheless, Atletico will need to consider the financial consequences of agreeing to Real Madrid’s terms. Despite having a contract valid until 2027, Garcia’s future at The Bernabeu seems uncertain, particularly as the club is actively seeking a new left-back for their team. Garcia is reportedly keen on securing more playing time and a significant role, which he is unlikely to achieve under Carlo Ancelotti. Although Real Madrid’s valuation poses challenges to the negotiations, the report suggests that Garcia’s departure seems unavoidable.
