Florentino is Determined: the Only Transfer Madrid Will Make if Davies Doesn't Come
Real Madrid finds the alternative if they don't manage to sign the Canadian winger
Last summer, it seemed clear that Real Madrid was going to get the transfer of Alphonso Davies. The Canadian winger had agreed, and only Bayern's refusal prevented it. However, everything was postponed to 2025, which would be when his contract would end.
However, as the months have passed, things have become more complicated, to the point that any scenario is possible. There has been speculation about him moving to the Premier League and even renewing with Bayern. This has forced Real Madrid to react immediately.
Names have started to emerge as possible alternatives in case the transfer of Alphonso Davies isn't achieved. However, it seems that the club is clear that the only transfer they would make is Miguel Gutiérrez. He is the alternative they have chosen to strengthen the wing position.
In recent days, the name of Theo Hernández has been strongly mentioned, as it seems he won't continue at Milan. However, the club considers that his return is not an option. His age, the fact that he already had an opportunity, and the huge cost practically rule him out.
An economical transfer to solve the problem with the left wing
If Real Madrid doesn't secure the transfer of Alphonso Davies, they will have a big problem with the left-back position. Among other things, because Mendy's contract also ends, and it seems difficult to renew him. That would leave Fran García as the only option for that position.
This is why they view the return of Miguel Gutiérrez favorably, among other things, due to his good performance with Girona. But that's not the only reason, as it would be a very feasible economical transfer to undertake. He has a signed clause that would allow them to bring him back for 8 million.
Additionally, they still retain 50 percent of his rights and are keeping an eye on his situation. Several Premier League teams had shown interest in transfer him, willing to pay a significant amount for him. If he doesn't return to Real Madrid, they will indeed receive a good amount of money.
