Newcastle United is interested in signing 22-year-old Spanish Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Garcia, who is also a target for Arsenal. Garcia is not a guaranteed starter for the Spanish club and may seek a move in the summer for more regular playing time. According to a report from SportsBoom, any move from Newcastle for the player is contingent on them being able to sell Nick Woltemade. Real Madrid is unwilling to lose Garcia, of whom they have a high opinion, and the report from SportsBoom claims that any potential sale would have to include a buyback clause. The forward has 7 caps and 6 goals for Spain's U21 team, and has made 4 appearances and provided 1 assist in LaLiga this season. His contract with the club runs until June 2030, and his Transfermarkt market value is €30 million. In early 2026, reports mentioned a €25 million offer from Beşiktaş and a €30 million offer from Aston Villa.
