Spanish giants Real Madrid are reportedly closing in on the signing of 19-year-old Ghanaian midfielder Latif Issman from Spanish lower-division side UD Logroñés.
Issman is expected to join Real Madrid Castilla, the club’s reserve team, ahead of next season as the Spanish giants continue to invest in young talents with the potential to develop into future first-team players.
The proposed move would represent a significant milestone in the youngster’s career, offering him an opportunity to continue his development within one of the most prestigious football structures in the world.
Real Madrid Castilla, which competes in Spain’s football league system, serves as a development pathway for seeking to break into the senior squad. Several young talents have used the team as a platform to progress towards the first team.
For Ghanaian football, Issman’s reported move would be another encouraging development, highlighting the growing interest in young Ghanaian players across European football.
Although the deal is understood to be nearing completion, an official confirmation from the clubs is still awaited.
If completed, Issman’s arrival at Castilla would give the 19-year-old an important platform to showcase his abilities and make further progress in Spanish football.
