Journalist Fabrizio Romano has provided a clear update on the future of Real Madrid forward Gonzalo Garcia, and the situation points strongly towards an exit this summer.
The key factor behind this development is Real Madrid’s plan to reintegrate Endrick into the first-team setup after his loan spell.
The club is ready to trust the Brazilian talent for next season, and this decision is expected to directly impact Garcia’s role in the squad.
With Endrick returning and competition increasing in attack, Garcia is now seen as the player most likely to make way.
Real Madrid are already preparing for his departure, and interest in the young forward is growing rapidly across Europe.
There is heavy interest

The club is yet to make a final call on the structure of the transfer, as they are weighing up whether to send him out on loan or proceed with a permanent sale.
Among the clubs closely monitoring the situation is Borussia Dortmund.
The Bundesliga side have been linked with Gonzalo in recent weeks and are said to be ready to make a serious financial commitment, with reports suggesting a potential offer in the region of €30 million.
Interest is not limited to Germany, as Juventus have also re-entered the race for the striker.
The Serie A giants had already established contact with Real Madrid back in January, although no agreement was reached at the time.
Now, they are expected to revive their pursuit as they look to strengthen their attacking options.
Despite the growing interest, Real Madrid remain in control of the situation.
This means if the club opt for a permanent transfer, they are expected to include buyback clauses and a percentage of future sales, ensuring they retain long-term control over the player’s development.
