Real Madrid are on the verge of completing the signing of 18-year-old center-back Lamini Fati from Leganés for €100,000. Born to an Angolan mother and Bissau-Guinean father, Fati is a highly regarded defensive talent with strong performances for Leganés B in Spain’s Tercera Division. He previously attracted interest from Valencia but opted to stay at Leganés last summer.
Fati, known for his composure and tactical awareness, will join Real Madrid’s Juvenil A team in January. Long-term plans may see him progress to Castilla under Raúl’s guidance, signaling Madrid’s confidence in his potential.
