José Félix Díaz Announces if Miguel Gutiérrez Can Return: 'They've Tricked Me'

The possibilities of Miguel Gutiérrez's return to Real Madrid have been revealed by José Félix Díaz

For several months, one of the names linked to a return to Real Madrid has been Miguel Gutiérrez. The current left-back for Girona has established himself, since his arrival at the team, as one of the best in his position in LaLiga. Helping Girona during their historic last season, Miguel showed his level.

This placed him in the spotlight of several rumors claiming his return to Real Madrid. With the team's need to strengthen the left-back position, Miguel remained a more than solid option. However, José Félix Díaz has recently revealed that, so far, Real Madrid hasn't considered the return of Miguel Gutiérrez to the squad.

"The option of Miguel Gutiérrez is not to discourage people, or I've been misled for 2 years," were his words revealing the reality of Miguel's return. Focused on other objectives, everything indicates that Real Madrid won't make any move for Miguel.

The Revelation of José Félix Díaz

Training from 2011 to 2022 in Real Madrid's youth academy, Miguel Gutiérrez signed with Girona in search of more opportunities. Seeking to gain experience and establish himself as a top-level player, Miguel achieved that and much more. At 23 years of age, Miguel has managed to establish himself as an excellent left-back.

Fast, with the ability to attack as well as defend, Miguel has qualities that would be of great help to Real Madrid. After the situation with Alphonso Davies, who renewed with Bayern Munich, several rumors pointed to Miguel as a reinforcement for the club.

However, the recent words of José Félix Díaz have made it clear that Real Madrid is not interested in Miguel.  Despite holding 50% of Miguel's rights, Real Madrid prefers to focus on other left-backs to strengthen their left flank.

The Return That Will Never Happen for Miguel

Although his return to Real Madrid is far from being a reality, Miguel has more teams interested in his services. Being able to continue progressing with his career, Miguel could even leave Spain in a deal that would benefit Real Madrid.
