Real Madrid accelerates the signing of prodigy JJ Gabriel

Real Madrid is about to sign the young striker JJ Gabriel from Manchester United, according to a report published today in AS.

Barcelona, Paris Saint‑Germain and Bayern Munich also showed interest once it became clear that the promising forward would leave Manchester, but Los Blancos appear ready to finalize the transfer while Gabriel trains awaiting the saga's conclusion.

Gabriel will be a player for Real Madrid Castilla at least until the end of the current season, although the club wants him to train regularly with the first team following the formula used with Sergio Martínez, who joined Real Madrid last summer.
