Real Madrid already has serious doubts about their new signing JJ Gabriel!

While JJ Gabriel has chosen to join Real Madrid, the Madrid management already has serious concerns about the player and his entourage…

It was a saga that captivated England, and beyond. Indeed, JJ Gabriel, considered the country's brightest prospect, had decided to leave Manchester United before signing his first professional contract with the Red Devils. Virtually every major club in Europe considered signing him, and ultimately Real Madrid secured his signature, beating out clubs like FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich.

The player's entourage had some serious demands, and the transfer fee is estimated at around €15 million. This includes the player's salary, bonuses, commissions, and the transfer fee to be paid to Manchester United. Jude Bellingham reportedly even intervened to convince the attacking midfielder, who recently turned 16, to join Real Madrid Castilla in the Spanish third division. While the deal hasn't been officially announced, the player has already posed with the front page of the Marca newspaper announcing his arrival, leaving little room for doubt.

A problematic father

But Real Madrid has reportedly already been put off by some of the teenager's behavior. A recent video of the player in a Barcelona store, holding one of the Catalan club's jerseys, circulated on social media. But more importantly, as The Sun explains, the Madrid management is already very wary of the player's father, who is said to be particularly demanding and already has a rather dubious reputation.

He reportedly had a very strained relationship with Manchester United, and naturally, in Madrid, there are already fears that he might repeat this behavior at Valdebebas. They also worry that he could be a bad influence on his son and are concerned about the father's actions on social media. Within the Merengue club, some people, including players, were surprised to see the young Englishman declare his dream of winning the Ballon d'Or, without having even played a single professional match. The transfer is not currently in jeopardy, but what is certain is that the behavior of JJ Gabriel and his father will be closely scrutinized in Spain.
