Brahim Diaz will be announced as a Real Madrid star shortly. He underwent a medical on Monday ahead of this official unveiling at the Santiago Bernabeu, according to The Daily Mail.
The former Manchester City starlet sealed a £22 million transfer to the Champions of Europe and has signed a 6-year contract at the club. Diaz decided to pack his bags and move out of the Etihad as the battle for a spot in midfield at Manchester City showed no signs of abating.
Real Madrid have had their own struggles domestically and the club’s ageing midfield is a cause for concern. Diaz hopes to take advantage of the current situation and lay the groundwork for a flourishing future in Madrid.
However, it won’t be an easy task. To stake a claim on a starting berth, Diaz will have to prove his worth against the likes of Gareth Bale, Vinicius Jr, Isco, Marco Asensio and Lucas Vazquez.
Brahim Diaz had earlier rejected the opportunity to secure a loan move to Girona FC in the hopes that he will have a part to play in City’s title defence. However, he never featured in the league for Pep Guardiola’s side. After Vinicius, Diaz will be the second teenager that Los Blancos will have placed a lot of hope and faith in as they continue to rope in mercurial young talents to the club.
