Getafe was one of several Spanish clubs interested in signing Unai López, viewing him as a potential replacement for Milla, who is expected to move to Saudi Arabia. However, Getafe and Villarreal were ultimately not the preferred clubs for the 30-year-old Spanish midfielder. Milla, whom Getafe sought to replace, was also a player of high interest to Olympiacos. López joined Rayo Vallecano in July 2022 and has a contract that runs until June 2026. In the 2025/2026 LaLiga season, he made 28 appearances and provided 4 assists. His market value is estimated to be €2.50m, according to Transfermarkt.
