Lunin Gives the OK and Florentino Activates the Exchange, Fran García for a Young Star

This season has seen Real Madrid's need to continue strengthening its team. Despite Fran's importance, the club has shown no problem in letting him go in exchange for the services of a Premier League star. The player in question is a compatriot of Lunin, who has given his approval for his transfer.

Ilya Zabarnyi is the main interest of Real Madrid for the Whites' defense. Given the club's constant injuries, the Ukrainian central defender has been presented as the solution to these problems. His performance at Bournemouth has shown that he has what it takes to make the leap to the Meringue team.

The English team's manager, Andoni Iraola, has expressed his willingness to let his central defender leave. However, an exchange for Fran García plus a little money has been presented as the only option to complete this operation.

A beneficial exchange

At just 22 years old, Ilya has managed to stand out in the Premier League as a solid central defender. Arriving at Bournemouth in 2023, his 1,350 minutes played demonstrate the importance he has acquired in the team. This has also been evident in his contract, which ends in 2029.

In need of a young center-back, Real Madrid are willing to carry out the operation to sign Ilya. Although Fran García is still part of the club's plans, the transfers planned for the left winger position will cover the Spaniard's departure.

This operation would be extremely beneficial for all parties involved. Bournemouth would gain the services of a full-back that their coach knows from his time at Rayo Vallecano. On the other hand, Real Madrid would finally manage to sign one of the most promising center-backs in Europe.

The operation for a next market

Despite the interest of both clubs in this operation, Real Madrid must carefully study all the details. Making an interesting offer to Bournemouth and convincing Fran García to leave is essential to ensure the success of this operation.
