According to Real Madrid's team reporter Alberto, Xavi Alonso decided to keep Gonzalo Garcia in Real Madrid's first team, who will take over the No. 9 jersey, which symbolizes the identity of the main striker.

The male lead of the cool story, "Raul" returned

Since scoring his personal Real Madrid career in February 2025, Gonzalo Garcia's career has entered the fast lane. In May, Gonzalo Garcia was selected for the Real Madrid Club World Cup roster. Xavi Alonso decided on the talented striker while studying video materials before he took office. In the Club World Cup not long ago, Gonzalo Garcia recorded a 6-game 4 goals and 1 assist, becoming the best player in Real Madrid and gaining the opportunity to stay in the first team.

Gonzalo Garcia won the trust of Alonso with her excellent in front of the goal and her positive performance without the ball. She ranked ahead of Enderick in the appearance rankings

Mbappe took over the No. 10 player left by Modric, and Xavi Alonso handed the No. 9 player to Gonzalo Garcia. From Gonzalo Garcia's performance during her trip to North America, we can see that this is a player with very active running and outstanding points-grabbing ability. The high scoring efficiency in front of the goal reminds people of Raul back then. He deserves the No. 9 jersey as a Real Madrid youth training elite.

Alonso's key pawn in the test, Real Madrid's offensive speed-up key

Thanks to his outstanding performance in the Club World Cup, Gonzalo Garcia has won the attention of many Premier League giants, which shows that his style characteristics are very consistent with the requirements of the oppressive counter-attack style. The coexistence problem between Mbappe and Vinicius is difficult to solve. Xavi Alonso regards Gonzalo Garcia as a key piece to crack the front line dilemma. Even if Gonzalo Garcia cannot shake the main position of Mbappe and Vinicius for the time being, Xavi Alonso will increase his playing time as much as possible. If Real Madrid wants to outperform their opponents, they must have such a strong boy in the frontcourt to lead the third-tier operation.
