Real Madrid think Joselu is wrong to go to Qatar

After a remarkable season in the Real Madrid jersey, Joselu is expected to join Qatar. The 34-year-old Spaniard, currently at the Euro with La Roja, wants to treat himself to a golden early retirement at 12 million euros per year by joining Al-Gharafa Sports Club in the Qatar Stars League. To facilitate the transfer, Real Madrid exercised the purchase option and then let him leave for the Qatari club. Even if the Madridistas approve of the operation and want to arrange the departure of their player, they are not sure of the choice of their striker.

According to the media Relief, Casa Blanca considers this choice to be bad for the club and for the player. Real would have preferred to keep their striker for one more season, then release him next season, once their new offensive recruits had made their mark. Despite this, Joselu’s move to Qatar seems inevitable. Real Madrid won’t be short of attacking options next season anyway. Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, Brahim Diaz, Arda Güler and Endrick will be available to appear on the first team sheet in La Liga in a few weeks.
