The website 'Fichajes' reported that Getafe has become the leading candidate to sign Gonzalo Garcia, Real Madrid's forward, during the winter transfer window, as he needs playing time after being almost completely absent from participation this season.

Real Madrid is considering loaning the player in January to ensure his development, while Getafe believes that Garcia will provide a significant offensive addition to the team, especially in Jose Bordalas' system which relies on speed and movement behind the defense.

The geographical proximity and the provision of regular playing time give Getafe a clear advantage, and Real Madrid wants to make a decision before the start of January to avoid market complications.

According to the same source, all parties are inclined to complete the deal early, making Garcia's move to Getafe the most likely step this winter.
