Getafe have beaten Barcelona to one of Spanish football's brightest young talents. According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Getafe will sign Sabadell footballer Sergi Altimira.
The 21 year-old midfielder will end up at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez as a free agent as the previously cited source reports that the player and Getafe have reached an agreement for Altimira to be their first signing of the 2023-24 campaign.
That happened before Barca were able to bolster their B team, coached by Rafa Marquez. However, Sabadell asked for the amount in his buyout clause of 350,000 euros, but Barcelona refused to pay it.
Now, just five months before he becomes a free agent, Getafe have got there ahead of the Catalans to sign a talented footballer with a bright future who could boost their midfield.
