Udinese have confirmed the signing of Iker Bravo, who came through the Barcelona youth system and spent time on loan at Real Madrid as a Bayer Leverkusen loanee. He now moves on from Xabi Alonso's side in a €10m deal in which the Germans reserve 50% of a future sale.

The Italian club announced it in a statement in which, although it does not specify how much it has paid for him, it details that he has signed until 30 June 2028. The press specialised in transfers claim that the deal has been closed at 10 million euros, which will rest in the coffers of Bayer Leverkusen, his destination after not renewing his contract with the Barcelona academy.
Iker Bravo played last season on loan at Real Madrid. The Germans reserve 50% of a future sale in a release clause that looks like the most flattering for them in this consensus given the striker's future projection.
He finished the summer as ‘MVP’ of the U19 European Championship, which is already in the ‘La Rojita’ trophy cabinet, with outstanding performances. The Spanish striker scored against Denmark in the group stage and against France in the final.
At club level, playing for Real Madrid Castilla, he finished the 23-24 campaign with 20 goals in 35 games, starting 29 times. With 2 assists to cap a breakthrough performance, it wasn't enough for Los Blancos' offices to process the option to buy him. It is quite likely to be due to Ancelotti's overbooking up front, where he has Mbappe, Vinicius, Rodrygo or Endrick.
