Didac Aguirre The minimum price Real Madrid has set for Fran García after the World Cup
The amount Real Madrid seeks to earn from Fran García's departure in this transfer window
One of the best players for Real Madrid during the Club World Cup was Fran García. The left-back, in Mendy's absence due to injury, started throughout the tournament. His outstanding level led to his revaluation, which, according to information from AS newspaper, has inclined Real Madrid toward a sale for €25 to €30 million.
A more than acceptable value for a player who has managed to show his worth in the World Cup. Although no offers have been received for Fran yet, Real Madrid expects them to arrive soon. According to what we know at Defensa Central, another reason for Fran's possible departure is the arrival of Álvaro Carreras.
The 22-year-old would be the third left-back for Real Madrid, overcrowding this position. Although Mendy's departure was considered, his injury complicates his sale this summer. That's why Fran García is now the left-back most likely to leave the team.
A necessary income
Fran García has gone from less to more since his return to Real Madrid in the summer of 2023. Starting as Mendy's backup, Fran kept this role for a long time; the Frenchman's injuries gave Fran the opportunity to show his worth as a starter. Unfortunately, his highly irregular performance did not convince the team at all.
This changed with the arrival of Xabi Alonso and the implementation of his playing schemes. Fran García benefited from a much more dynamic and aggressive style from the club. Xabi made the most of his speed and connection with the strikers.
Even winning an MVP trophy, Fran showed himself as a solid full-back confident in his decisions. Although this level caused some rumors about his possible continuity, this will not be the case. Real Madrid has already made a decision that will hardly change.
Fran's opportunity
Showing that he can perform at the highest level, it would not be surprising if an important club inquires about Fran. The departure of the left-back would help, among other things, Real Madrid's finances. The team, in order to keep making signings, first needs to sell.
