The thrilling victory that Real Madrid achieved against Bayern Munich in the second leg of their semifinal matchup ensured that they would be able to compete in the final of the Champions League. Real Madrid supporters have one hero to credit, and that is the super-sub Joselu, despite the fact that Manuel Neuer was put under a lot of pressure for the course of the match.
After spending the bulk of the contest on the bench, the loaned striker was finally brought into the game at the finish of the encounter. He scored two goals in a short amount of time, with the assistance of a costly error made by the goalie for Bayern Munich.
However, what does Joselu’s future have in store for him? Taking everything into consideration, his loan deal with Real Madrid is set to end in the summer of 2024, and as things currently stand, there is no agreement in place to sign him permanently from Espanyol Football Club.
Joselu has shown that he is still capable of delivering at the highest level despite the fact that he is 34 years old. Given the significant role he has played for Los Blancos up to this point in the season, there is enough evidence to suggest that Carlo Ancelotti and Florentino Perez should seriously consider making him a permanent member of the team. That being said, context is also crucial.
This summer, Endrick will become a member of the camp, and it is anticipated that Kylian Mbappe will also sign with the club from Paris Saint-Germain. As a result, the two players who have been added to the Bernabeu roster are of high caliber, which may make it difficult for Joselu to start. After all, he battles hard enough to be selected for the starting lineup ahead of Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo regardless of his aforementioned troubles.
Under Julen Lopetegui, a transfer opportunity has been presented to a Real Madrid hero at West Ham.
An update from GIVEMESPORT indicates that West Ham United are “likely to explore” the possibility of acquiring Joselu during the summer transfer window. It is noteworthy to take into consideration that former Real Madrid manager Julen Lopetegui is being rumored to take over for David Moyes at the London Stadium at the conclusion of the current season. As a result, he could be able to collaborate closely with Joselu in order to organize the transfer.
As a player, Joselu began his career with the Real Madrid B club, which Lopetegui had managed. Joselu started his career with the B team. It is thus a thought-provoking proposition to consider the possibility of Joselu finishing his career under the former manager of Real Madrid.
In the past, Joeslu has previously participated in the Premier League on two different times, representing Stoke City and Newcastle United respectively. It is, however, accurate to claim that he did not leave an impression during any of his stints. Consequently, Joselu’s return to the English top flight might be seen as a representation of the growth that he has experienced since that time.
