Real Madrid is reportedly keeping a close eye on Atlético Madrid’s Under-19 captain, Jorge Castillo, a young midfielder who has shown great promise in the youth academy. Castillo, 18, has become a standout performer for Atlético’s youth teams, and his performances have caught the attention of scouts from Real Madrid. Despite his strong ties to Atlético, Los Blancos have been monitoring his progress for several months, intrigued by his potential.

The midfielder has trained with Atlético’s senior squad on multiple occasions, a clear indicator of his rapid development and the high regard in which he is held at the club. However, his contract with Atlético is set to expire next June, and the two clubs could be heading for a transfer tug-of-war. Although Atlético is keen to secure Castillo’s future and has made efforts to extend his contract, Real Madrid’s interest introduces an intriguing complication. Castillo’s loyalty to Atlético is well known, but the allure of joining Real Madrid could potentially shift the balance in the upcoming transfer battle.

This situation presents a complex challenge for both clubs, as the rivalry between them adds another layer of tension to the potential move. If Real Madrid were to secure Castillo's signature, it would be a significant coup, given the player’s ties to Atlético.
