There is not much time left before the summer transfer window of 2026 comes to an end, and as far as Real Madrid<\/a> are concerned, it has been a quiet day so far.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

With most of their business completed very early in the summer, Los Blancos<\/em> entered the deadline day with no plans of any late signings. However, the possibility of some last-minute departures was not ruled out. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

One of the club\u2019s most talented young midfield prospects, Manuel Angel, is on his way to Fulham in a deal worth \u20ac4 million<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Now, there has been some movement concerning another exciting La Fabrica<\/em> player as we enter the final stretch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Valencia want Joan Martinez<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
\n

Indeed, according to Radio Esport 91.4<\/a><\/em>, La Liga<\/a> side Valencia have made a late enquiry for Real Madrid<\/a> youngster Joan Martinez.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Los Che<\/em> are seeking to sign the teenage defender on a loan deal for the remainder of the 2026\/27 season and have asked about the possibility of a deadline-day move.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The report highlights that, as things stand, Martinez has multiple options as far as his future is concerned, including staying put at Real Madrid<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Nonetheless, Valencia are pressing in the final hours of the transfer window to try and secure the youngster on loan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

What should Real Madrid<\/a> do?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
\n

It is no secret that Martinez is widely regarded as one of the most talented youngsters to have come through La Fabrica<\/em> in recent years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The 19-year-old prospect first broke into the first-team scene under Carlo Ancelotti back in 2024, taking part in pre-season, but an ACL injury sidelined him for a prolonged period.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Having made successful recovery, the teenage centre-back was called up to the matchday squad on multiple occasions last season, by both Xabi Alonso and Alvaro Arbeloa.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Martinez was a part of the first-team squad for seven games last term, but did not make his debut. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This summer, the youngster participated in pre-season under Jose Mourinho and also took part in a few friendlies, earning praise from the Portuguese tactician<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

However, with a pathway to regular action in the senior setup unavailable, a loan move to another La Liga<\/a> club could make sense for the youngster. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

After all, Mourinho has Ibrahima Konate, Dean Huijsen, Antonio Rudiger, Eder Militao, as well as Raul Asencio, who has refused to leave, at his disposal for the first team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
