Al-Gharafa striker, Joselu, has urged Real Madrid to stop searching for a new number nine that will lead the team’s attack line in the new 2025/2026 season.

According to Joselu, Gonzalo Garcia is an incredible profile of a good number nine that should lead the attack of Xabi Alonso’s side.

He said this after the 21-year-old led Real Madrid to a 1-0 win against Juventus in the Round of 16 encounter of the FIFA Club World Cup on Tuesday night.

Garcia scored the game’s only goal, thanks to a brilliant second half header.

Speaking about Garcia, Joselu, a former Real Madrid striker said ( via MadridXtra): “Gonzalo? The search for a number nine should stop.

“We have found an incredible profile,” he added.

Garcia was promoted to Real Madrid’s first team from the club’s Castilla (Real Madrid B) in 2023.
