A member of the attacking ranks at Real Madrid is all set for a move to La Liga rivals Real Valladolid.
That’s according to The Athletic, who highlight Juanmi Latasa as the player in question.
Frontman Latasa, for his part, is fresh off a 2nd successive loan spell away from Real Madrid.
After linking up with Getafe for the 2022/23 campaign, the Spaniard rejoined the Azulones for another 12 months last summer.
And he went on to play an altogether more prominent role at the Estadio Coliseum, notching 32 La Liga appearances, and a pair of goals.
The Getafe brass, when all was said and done, opted against making Latasa’s signing a permanent one, with the 23-year-old having since linked back up with Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid squad at Valdebebas as a result.
If the latest word stemming from the media is anything to go by, however, then his stay back in Spain’s capital will not last long.
As per a report from The Athletic, Real Valladolid have reached the point of ‘advanced negotiations’ for Latasa, with the two clubs currently talking through the finer details of a permanent transfer, featuring a buyback clause.
Should all go according to plan, the attacker will fly out to Valladolid over the coming 48 hours, ahead of putting pen to paper on a contract with his new club.
