Title: Real Madrid On the Brink of Securing Two New Recruits, One Already Sealed
Real Madrid is making strides in the January transfer window, with two deals almost sealed. The first, confirmed by the club, is the early return of Manu Marquez from his loan at Guadalajara. The 20-year-old midfielder will reinforce Raul Gonzalez's Castilla team, providing additional options on the left wing for the depleted and relegation-threatened squad.
Meanwhile, Spanish outlet AS reports that Alan Godoy is on the verge of joining Real Madrid from Second Division side Eldense. Despite interest from Barcelona, Godoy appears set on a move to Madrid, even if it means stepping down to play in the Castilla team. The negotiation stage is advanced, with a reported fee of €2 million including add-ons.
Young and talented, Godoy could potentially progress to Carlo Ancelotti's first team if injuries continue to mount. Currently, Madrid is well-stocked in the number 9 position with Kylian Mbappe and Endrick leading the front line. Once the Godoy deal is finalized, both Madrid and Eldense will officially announce the transfer.
