Real Madrid: The Rojiblancos have some doubts regarding JJ Gabriell!

Press reports, most notably from the newspaper Marca, have revealed that the player has become one of Real Madrid’s key upcoming signings; he is set to join Real Madrid Castilla, the club’s reserve team, which competes in the Spanish third division.

The same reports indicated that Real Madrid succeeded in persuading the player to move to Spain, following the involvement of Jude Bellingham, who helped convince the 16-year-old. It is worth noting that the player’s entourage and legal representatives have already agreed to all the terms of the offer recently presented by the Spanish club.

Reports have indicated that Real Madrid managed to secure the player's agreement for a total of 16 million euros—a figure that covers everything, including agent fees and the full transfer cost.

The player's father is the real problem that Real Madrid fears

Despite the general optimism surrounding the player, Foot Mercato reports that the Spanish club is concerned about one particular obstacle: the player’s inner circle—or, more specifically, his father.

But above all, as The Sun explains, Madrid's leaders are already very wary of the player's father, who is said to be particularly demanding and already has a rather sulphurous reputation.

He reportedly had a very tense relationship with Manchester United, and inevitably, in Madrid, there are already fears of seeing him reproduce this behavior at Valdebebas. They also fear that he could have a bad influence on his son, and are also worried about the father's actions on social media.

Within the Merengue club, some people, including players, were also surprised to see the young Englishman declare that he dreams of the Ballon d'Or, without even having played a single professional match. The operation is not a priori in danger, but what is certain is that the behavior of JJ Gabriel and his father will be scrutinized very closely in Spain.
