Morata’s eventual arrival to Real Madrid means that Jesé should leave the club. Jesé Rodríguez is a target for many clubs, including Espanyol, according to one of the members of the team’s board.
Ramón Lobert said today that Jesé Rodríguez “is an option” for Espanyol, who want to improve the squad and reach European positions next season. “We are analyzing several playing in which we trust. I don’t know if he will be an Espanyol player but I do know the deal is not about to be closed”
Jesé Rodríguez played 28 games this season for Real Madrid in La Liga but only 8 in the starting lineup. He only scored 5 goals, all in Bernabéu stadium, two more than last year. His most important goal this season was at Olimpico of Rome in the Champions League Last 16.
However, his performance hasn’t convinced Zinedine Zidane or the board and the club is looking in the market for another striker. If the club finally buys someone else, Jesé should leave and try to shine in another club.
Morata did something similar two years ago and now we do know he did the right thing. Morata is playing the Euro and the best team in Europe are trying to sign him for next year. Jesé is only 23 years old and he could follow Morata’s step and leave Real Madrid this summer.
Espanyol is always a good club to grow, especially if you come from Real Madrid. Last example was Lucas Vázquez, who played great at ‘Los Periquitos’ and came back last summer. But also Kiko Casilla is a good example.
Ramon Robert explained today that important names such as José Antonio Reyes, Álvaro Negredo, Giuseppe Rossi or Fernando Llorente are also in the club list to build a competitive squad for Quique Sánchez Flores, the new coach who trained successfully Watford last year.
