OFFICIAL: Real Madrid buy Joselu, will then sell him to Al-Gharafa for the same price
Espanyol have announced that Real Madrid triggered their €1.5 million option to buy Joselu.
Real Madrid will now sell Joselu to Qatar’s Al-Gharafa for that same price in order to facilitate his move, given that Espanyol didn’t want to sell the striker to Qatar for that money.
Joselu will leave Spanish football after a very successful season with Real Madrid where he scored 18 goals in a reserve role, also giving Los Blancos the ticket to the Champions League Final by scoring a brace against Bayern Munich in the return leg of the Semifinals.
The Spanish attacker acknowledged the fact that his playing time in Madrid was going to be very limited after the signing of Kylian Mbappe and also considering that Endrick will need minutes to grow and develop as a player, so he ultimately decided to leave Real Madrid and sign a lucrative contract in Qatar.
