Unveiled! Real Madrid star Gonzalo Garcia becomes the team s new favorite, defeating Mbappe at No. 9

In the recent Club World Cup, Real Madrid's most dazzling discovery was undoubtedly the 21-year-old youth training young player Gonzalo Garcia. When Mbappe was absent due to injury, he gained Alonso's trust and started three consecutive games. His performance was quite exciting, with 2 goals and 1 assist. Gonzalo contributes to the team's offense in every game, and Alonso also highly praised it, saying that he has the temperament of Raul and is an innate No. 9 player.

Since Alonso took over Real Madrid, all players have ushered in new opportunities, including many players from the youth training camp. When an opportunity comes, it is crucial to grasp it. From this point of view, Gonzalo Garcia did a particularly good job. In three Club World Cup games, he showed that he was a comprehensive No. 9 player, with physical confrontation and good impact. He not only created a second chance for his teammates, but also was also active on the defensive end and had extremely high participation in the game.

Gonzalo's outstanding performance gradually neglected Enderick, who was also recovering from his injuries, and his appearance just filled the void. Alonso has a high opinion of Gonzalo: "He is a typical No. 9 player, knows how to wait for opportunities, and runs very well. His running style contains Raul's classic qualities. He is full of confidence and seems to have no obstacles that cannot be surpassed."

So what will Gonzalo Garcia's future? Although Gonzalo may return to the bench once Mbappe returns, from the technical perspective, he can even beat Mbappe to some extent. Because Mbappe is more suitable for wingers to cut inward and is not good at playing the pure No. 9 position. When Real Madrid faces challenges, Alonso's first choice is probably Gonzalo, which makes Rodrigo, who is currently worth 90 million euros, slightly embarrassed. After all, in the Club World Cup group stage, Rodrigo only participated in two games and became dispensable.

Gonzalo Garcia's outstanding performance has made Real Madrid more confident when dealing with Rodrigo's affairs, and now they are willing to listen to the offer for the Brazil international. Rodrigo knew that he was not irreplaceable under Alonso, and he needed to consider his future, especially as the World Cup came next year, he had to maintain enough game time to maintain his form.
