Florentino Pérez is preparing changes in Real Madrid's squad for the next season, and he needs money to make them. This can be obtained through various means, and it seems that one potential source is in Italy. In recent years, the merengue team has been selling several academy players outside of Spain, reserving 50% of their future sale in case they manage to excel there.
One case where this has happened is with Mario Gila, an academy player who is now at Lazio. At 24 years old, he is an undisputed central defender in the starting eleven and has attracted the interest of several major European clubs. In 2022, Florentino Pérez sold him there for 6 million euros, keeping the possibility of continuing to earn money in the future.
At the moment, Mario Gila's value has already reached 28 million euros, and Lazio's plan is to try to cash in on him in the summer. The Catalan is willing to move to a more prestigious club, and Real Madrid is rubbing their hands. It seems that he could leave for about 30 "kilos", with Florentino Pérez keeping half to make the desired signings.
Florentino Already Knows Where He'll Invest the 15 Million for Mario Gila in Madrid
Real Madrid has activated its alternative plan on the left side of the defense, which won't have to go far to find a good alternative. According to reports, Real Madrid is considering the return of one of La Fábrica's gems through their buyback for 8 million euros.
Trained in the Madrid academy, he has stood out at Girona, becoming one of the most promising full-backs in Europe. His performance hasn't gone unnoticed, and Real Madrid is considering his return to strengthen the left-back position. We are talking, of course, about Miguel Gutiérrez.
The buyback agreement would allow Real Madrid to secure the services of Miguel Gutiérrez for a more than affordable figure. This strategy aligns with Florentino's policy of reclaiming talents developed in their youth ranks that they loan out to grow.
Thus, of the 15 million that could be earned from Mario Gila, half would be allocated to strengthen the left side of the defense. Florentino Pérez has everything planned and hopes to execute the agreed-upon squad planning for Real Madrid.
