Getafe's president has now claimed that the two clubs reached an agreement for the striker to move to the club in the summer, but he accepts that the situation has changed, and that Los Blancos may now attempt to keep him as their back-up striker, behind Kylian Mbappe.
WHAT TORRES SAID
Torres said, via Mundo Deportivo: 'We have an agreement with Gonzalo. There was a commitment that as long as he didn't stay at Real Madrid he could come. This is an agreement from a month and a half ago with both the club and the agent. I have hope, if Gonzalito comes it would be a good help. We also have Víctor Muñoz committed, but he is at the World Cup too.'
