Víctor Munoz, Real Madrid’s 21-year-old prospect, is likely to leave the club this summer in search of consistent first-team minutes. According to Mundo Deportivo, several La Liga clubs are already showing interest in the young forward who has struggled to break into Carlo Ancelotti’s star-studded lineup.
Difficult El Clásico debut
Munoz’s introduction to senior football came under the harshest possible conditions – during an El Clásico against Barcelona. The high-pressure occasion proved challenging for the youngster, who missed a clear opportunity shortly after stepping onto the pitch. This unfortunate moment triggered significant criticism from fans, with the backlash becoming so intense that Munoz reportedly shut down all his social media accounts.

Despite the rocky start, those within the club continue to view Munoz as a player with substantial potential. His performances in Madrid’s youth setup have showcased his agility, intelligent movement, and clinical finishing ability. The club still considers him one of their brightest attacking talents, even if his senior career has yet to take off.
La Liga clubs circling
Four clubs from Spain’s top flight have expressed serious interest in acquiring Munoz. Rayo Vallecano, Getafe, Mallorca, and Deportivo Alavés are all monitoring the situation closely as the summer transfer window approaches.
Alavés appears particularly confident about securing a deal. The club has maintained a positive working relationship with Real Madrid in recent years, having previously taken Antonio Blanco and Rafa Marin on successful loan spells. This established connection could give them an advantage in negotiations.

Future plans
Real Madrid seems open to facilitating Munoz’s departure if it benefits his development. The club is considering both loan options and permanent transfers that include buy-back clauses, indicating they still believe in his long-term potential.
Munoz’s contract with Los Blancos runs until June 2026. So far, he has made just two appearances for the first team without registering any goals or assists. A move away from the Santiago Bernabéu now appears to be the most logical next step in his career.
