Real Madrid has begun exploring the possibility of signing 21-year-old Levante striker Carlos Espi as part of their plans to bolster the front line during the current summer transfer window.
According to journalist Ramón Álvarez, the name Espi is on the table for Real Madrid's management, as the player was close to a move to the English league. However, the deal has not been finalized yet, and there is no official or definitive agreement.
Real Madrid's interest in the Spanish forward comes as Gonzalo Garcia is close to departing for Fulham, a transfer that is expected to leave a gap in the team's roster, prompting the sporting management to search for a young striker with significant potential for development.
Although Carlos Espi has become one of the options being monitored by the royal club, negotiations have not yet reached an advanced stage, as Real Madrid is currently content to observe the player's situation and await developments regarding his future before taking any official steps.
Real Madrid is expected to finalize its decision in the coming days, especially if Gonzalo Garcia's move to Fulham is completed. This could accelerate the club's efforts to add a new striker before the summer transfer window closes.
