Official: Gonzalo Garcia Signs New Contract with Real Madrid Until 2030, Gets New Shirt Number — Completing Months of Intense Negotiations
Real Madrid have officially announced that promising talent Gonzalo Garcia has signed a new long-term contract keeping him at the Santiago Bernabéu until June 2030. The deal not only secures one of the club’s most highly-rated young players for the foreseeable future but also sees him handed a new shirt number, signalling a bigger role in Carlo Ancelotti’s plans.
The agreement brings to an end months of intense negotiations between the player’s representatives and the club’s hierarchy. Talks reportedly began late last year as Madrid sought to fend off growing interest from several European giants who had been closely monitoring Garcia’s progress.
While the club has not disclosed financial details, Spanish media suggest the contract includes a significant salary increase and a substantial release clause—a clear statement of intent that Garcia is a key part of Real Madrid’s long-term project.
Speaking after signing the contract, Garcia expressed his excitement: “This is the club of my dreams. I’ve worked hard for this moment, and I’m ready to give everything for these fans.”
Club president Florentino Pérez praised the youngster’s commitment, saying: “Gonzalo represents the future of Real Madrid. We are proud to have secured his services for many years to come.”
Garcia is expected to play a more prominent role this season, with his new shirt number seen as a symbolic passing of responsibility. Madrid fans will now be eager to see if he can translate his potential into consistent performances on the pitch.
