Real Madrid is on the verge of signing Rachad Fettal, a 20-year-old forward who is currently part of Almería's squad. The transfer is intended for Castilla under the management of Álvaro Arbeloa rather than the first team. According to Diario de Almería, the deal involves a payment of six million euros from Real Madrid, and the player's release clause is set at 40 million euros. This season, Fettal has participated in 19 matches for Almería, where he scored one goal. His season was interrupted by a knee injury in January, which necessitated meniscus surgery and resulted in a three-month recovery period. Fettal represents Morocco at the youth international level and has previously played for Spain's U-17 team. He made his La Liga debut on December 3, 2023, in a match against Real Betis that ended in a goalless draw. The forward is set to sign a three-year contract with Real Madrid.
