Real Madrid will sign Rayo Vallecano left-back Fran Garcia at the end of the season, coach Carlo Ancelotti confirmed on Wednesday.
Madrid considered bringing in the defender in the January transfer window, with Ferland Mendy set to miss several weeks with a thigh injury, but eventually decided to wait.
“It could have been an option but we thought that Mendy’s injury could be short,” said Ancelotti at a news conference. “We also thought that it would be good for Fran Garcia to stay at Rayo to keep progressing and gaining experience.” Rayo president Raul Martin Presa also confirmed a deal had been agreed in an interview with Spanish radio station Cadena Cope, although neither club has officially announced it.Related News
