Real Madrid are exploring the market for a target striker and Levante striker Carlos Esp, who has a 25 million release clause on his contract, would be on the clubs radar, according to a report published today on AS. Esp was set to sign for Hull City but he has decided to wait after learning of Real Madrids interest, per that same report.Los Blancos would see this as an opportunity to replace Gonzalo Garca with Esp while earning around 20 million in the process, given that Gonzalo is set to become a Fulham player for 40 million.Esp had a breakout season last year, scoring 13 goals for Levante in 27 appearances. Hes a pure target striker who would provide an aerial presence when needed. Some rumors suggested that he was going to make Spains list for the 2026 FIFA World Cup but he ultimately wasnt featured.
