Man, you wouldn’t believe the rollercoaster I’ve been on with this Real Madrid transfer situation. So, get this – I started following this Reinier Jesus guy back in 2020. Real Madrid dropped a cool 30 million euros to bring him over from Flamengo. Big money, right? Everyone was buzzing about this kid being the next big thing.
I was all in, thinking we had a future star on our hands. Watched every highlight reel I could find. But then, things got weird. First, I dove deep into his stats, tried to find any clue that he was getting first-team action. But he hardly played! Not a single league appearance, can you believe it?
So I started digging around, checking out what the big sports sites were saying. Found out he was being loaned out all over the place. First to Borussia Dortmund, which seemed promising. I thought, “Okay, maybe he just needs some time to develop.” I kept tabs on him there, hoping to see him shine, but it just didn’t happen. He didn’t get much playing time, and when he did, it wasn’t anything special.
Then came more loan spells. I tracked each one, hoping for a turnaround. He went to Girona, still in Spain, and I thought maybe being in La Liga would help him adapt. Checked every match report, every player rating. Nothing. The same story – not enough playing time, no impact when he did play.
The Frustrating Research
I even tried to follow him down to the Spanish third tier when he wasn’t traveling with the Castilla squad for a match. I thought, “Maybe he’s just a late bloomer, and we’ll see some magic in the lower leagues.” Nope. It was clear he wasn’t going to make it at Real Madrid.
Then I found out he finally found a new loan place in Italy. It’s like, another loan? When will it end? I read through articles on Sky Sports and The Athletic – they said he was headed to Frosinone in Serie A, but just for a year, and they couldn’t even buy him if they wanted to! All this moving around, and for what? It felt like I was chasing a ghost.
The Final Straw
And the latest buzz I’ve been tracking? It is all over the place. Real Madrid, they’re not even hiding it anymore. They want him out, not just loaned again but sold. After all this, they just want to cut their losses. Then I read a report on some site, Fichajes I think it was, saying that the club’s just trying to recover some of that 30 million they spent. It’s like watching a slow-motion car crash. I’ve spent hours on this, and it’s just been one disappointment after another.
It’s wild, right? This whole saga has been such a letdown. I really thought Reinier was going to be something special. I put in the time, followed his every move, and it just went nowhere. Now, I’m just here, shaking my head, wondering what could have been. I guess not every transfer story has a happy ending. It’s a tough lesson in football, and in life, really. You win some, you lose some, but this one stings a bit more than usual.
The contrast with them bringing in young Endrick and the superstar Mbappé just makes it even more painful. It’s like they’ve moved on, and I’m still stuck on what happened with Reinier. Anyway, that’s my story, my deep dive into the Reinier Jesus transfer saga. It’s been a wild ride, but it’s time for me to move on too.
