Fulham have officially completed the signing of Spanish striker Gonzalo García from Real Madrid, with the transfer now confirmed after an agreement was reached between the two clubs. According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the deal is done, making García Fulham’s latest addition ahead of the new Premier League season.
The transfer is worth a fixed €40 million, with a further €2 million in performance-related add-ons. Real Madrid have also included a 30% sell-on clause in the agreement, ensuring they will benefit from any future transfer involving the striker. In addition, the Spanish giants have secured matching rights, allowing them to match any future offer if Fulham decide to sell the player.
Gonzalo García, 22, is a product of Real Madrid’s famous youth academy, La Fábrica. The young forward developed through the club’s ranks before impressing for Real Madrid Castilla. Known for his intelligent movement, sharp finishing and hard-working style, García earned opportunities with the senior team and was regarded as one of the club’s brightest attacking prospects.
A move to Fulham offers García the chance to play regular first-team football in one of the world’s most competitive leagues. The Premier League club believes the Spanish striker has the quality and potential to become an important part of their attack in the coming seasons.
Although Real Madrid have agreed to sell the player, the contract terms show they still believe in his future. The sell-on clause and matching rights give the Spanish club the opportunity to benefit if García continues his development and attracts interest later in his career.
Romano also reports that Fulham are close to completing the signing of César Palacios, with that transfer expected to be finalized soon.
For now, Gonzalo García begins an exciting new chapter in English football, while Fulham secure another promising young talent as they continue strengthening their squad for the upcoming campaign.
