Source:Football -

Real Madrid might look to re-sign 23-year-old Spanish full-back Miguel Gutierrez from fellow La Liga club Girona in the 2025 summer transfer window. According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Miguel Gutierrez is the subject of interest from Real Madrid. The reigning La Liga champions are scouring the market for a left-back heading into the 2025 summer transfer window. So, the 23-year-old Girona star has emerged as a target for Los Blancos, and they can re-sign him for only EUR8 million due to a buyback clause.

Miguel Gutierrez and his rise at Girona Miguel Gutierrez has established himself as one of the best full-backs in La Liga since joining Girona from Real Madrid in August 2022. A native of Pinto, the Spaniard spent his formative years in his homeland and was with Real Madrid's fabled La Fabrica division for over a decade and broke into the club's first-team squad in April 2021.

However, the 23-year-old managed only 641 minutes of game time across ten appearances for Real Madrid. As for Gutierrez's spell with Girona, he has turned out nearly 100 times thus far for the Catalan outfit while chipping in with five goals and 14 assists.

The Spanish international was instrumental in Girona clinching a shock top-four finish in La Liga last season, with his exploits also helping him amass five appearances for La Roja. Meanwhile, Gutierrez's progress at the Catalan club has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe, including Real Madrid.

Real Madrid return on the cards? Real Madrid's interest in Miguel Gutierrez is understandable. The reigning La Liga champions are in a spot of bother over the left-back department, with Ferland Mendy enduring a horrendous start to the 2024/25 season. In addition, Fran Garcia has not earned Carlo Ancelotti's trust and is a backup option at best.

So, Real Madrid should invest in a top-class left-back next year, with Alphonso Davies the top target for Los Blancos. However, the Merengues have been closely monitoring Gutierrez's situation amid his links with Premier League bigwigs. They are now mulling over re-signing the Spaniard from fellow La Liga club Girona.

Real Madrid's agreement with Girona gave Los Blancos a buyback clause worth EUR8 million to bring Gutierrez back to the Santiago Bernabeu. So, it will be interesting to see if the 23-year-old Spanish full-back rejoins the reigning La Liga champions next year in a deal worth EUR8 million.
