Only center forward in the squad
Joselu returned to his boyhood club Real Madrid on loan in the summer and established himself as a reliable option up front at the start of the season. Originally intended as a back-up for Karim Benzema, the Stuttgart native is currently the only nominal center forward in the squad. The loan, which is valid until the end of the season, will soon become a permanent commitment.
For a fixed sum of 1.5 million euros, the “Royal” can bring Joselu permanently from Espanyol Barcelona to the Spanish capital. In view of the achievements shown so far and the comparatively small amount, this is a plan about which, according to Spanish media reports, there are no longer any two opinions internally.

On the third matchday, Joselu took the place of the injured Vinicius Junior and stormed alongside his compatriot Rodrygo in Carlo Ancelotti’s 4-3-1-2 system. Even after his return two weeks ago, the Spaniard remained in the starting lineup. The former Bundesliga professional has scored five goals in the last six games, making him the top goalscorer in LaLiga behind Jude Bellingham.
This project is unlikely to fail due to the will of the attacker, who was active in Germany for TSG Hoffenheim, Eintracht Frankfurt and Hannover 96. “I’m at Real Madrid and I don’t want to leave here. That much is clear to me. “I would like to stay here, but football has a lot of twists and turns,” the 33-year-old Spaniard told “Marca” last week.
The 64-year-old Italian also recently had words of praise for his protégé: “He plays very well with his back to the goal and also the other way around. He is very dangerous in the opponent’s penalty area and has fantastic heading ability. For us he is a guarantee, we know exactly what he can do for us in games like this.”
