Says Goodbye to Real Madrid to Move to Leganés, Florentino Authorizes His Departure

The changes in the Merengue squad for the upcoming season will be significant, at least in the club's first team. However, it seems that Florentino currently has another operation on the table that he authorizes to carry out. This would mean the departure of a player from the White team heading to Leganés for the next season.

In this case, we're not talking about a player from the squad, but rather a member of the team's staff, such as Andrés Pardo. He is one of Real Madrid's scouts and will now head to Leganés. Andrés's main role was as the head of national recruitment for the youth academy, an extremely important resource for the White club.

This could be a move that, in the long run, might have certain consequences on the overall development of talent in the youth academy. However, the decision has already been made, and he will soon leave the White entity.

Leaves the Club

Pardo had a short but efficient tenure at Real Madrid after his arrival at the White team in the summer of 2021. This was an important reinforcement for talent development in the youth academy and came with good references from Levante or Villarreal.

In the Ceramics team, he brought in names like Yeremy Pino or Álex Baena, who later became key pieces of the club. Therefore, this change represents a step back in the development of the youth academy for the present and future of the club.

While Florentino himself doesn't stand in the way of this element's departure from the youth team, he will have to find a suitable replacement. Something that the club has surely been working on for some time to 'cushion' the loss.

Best Wishes

Leaving an entity like Real Madrid must be a very complicated decision, but once made, there's no turning back. Therefore, the club can only offer the best wishes in this new stage and hope he finds the development he seeks with his new club.
