According to Fichajes, AC Milan are reportedly pondering a loan move for Gonzalo Garcia, as Real Madrid might be reluctant to sell the talented forward at the moment. The Rossoneri could face an uphill task to convince the Spaniard, given that there are English clubs like Aston Villa and West Ham United vying for his signature.
Gonzalo Garcia made his mark at the Club World Cup for Real Madrid, scoring four times in the tournament. There were expectations that those displays would have elevated his stature in Xabi Alonso’s plans for the regular season, although the 21-year-old Real Madrid whizkid has barely played under the new boss.
Garcia is at a stage where he would want to play regularly either at the Santiago Bernabeu or elsewhere. Real Madrid are uninterested in a sale at the moment, despite ongoing interest from elsewhere, which could open the doors to a loan deal to allow the striker to develop his talents with regular minutes.
AC Milan are reportedly interested in signing the player, with suggestions that the Rossoneri could make a loan approach for the attacker. The Serie A giants are vying to make a big impact in Italy this season, and Massimiliano Allegri could help Garcia develop in the right way.
The Rossoneri could explore an option to sign him in the future, but right now, they are willing to take their first steps by signing him on loan. On paper, they do hold a good enough chance to sign him, but currently, they face competition from a few English sides, namely Aston Villa and West Ham United.
The prospect of regular minutes could be achieved with English teams, too, as Aston Villa were prepared to make a move for Garcia. However, with Real Madrid likely to show reluctance to sell him now, the Villans could ponder a loan approach, as that would allow them to bring in a player who adds some ammunition to their attacking setup.
Meanwhile, West Ham are also in the mix alongside Villa, and on paper, the Hammers could offer him a serious role on their side. The Londoners currently have a dysfunctional forward line and could make do with a change of personnel, as the Hammers could pose a serious threat to the chances of both Villa and AC Milan in the race for the 21-year-old Real Madrid whizkid.
