Saudi Arabia's Al-Qadisiyah is about to finalize the purchase of Gastón Álvarez, the promising Uruguayan center-back from Getafe. This deal, valued at 13 million euros, would represent a significant economic boost for the southern Madrid team, which could be used to bring in new forwards, a position that José Bordalás urgently needs to fill.
Gastón Álvarez, who was on the brink of starting his fourth season with Getafe, has become a key player in José Bordalás's setup. Last season, the defender featured in a total of 31 matches between LaLiga and the Copa del Rey, showcasing his importance in the blue team's starting eleven.

Nevertheless, the offer from Al-Qadisiyah seems too attractive to turn down. Although Álvarez's absence from the squad for the match against Atlético Madrid raised concerns, the potential transfer will allow Getafe to strengthen their squad in an increasingly competitive transfer market.
This sale also highlights the growing interest of Saudi Arabian teams in investing large sums of money to acquire international talent and elevate the standard of their domestic league. According to Marca, for Getafe, the 13 million euros not only provide financial relief but also an opportunity to restructure their team and aim for new objectives in the season. The departure of Gastón Álvarez marks the beginning of a new era for the club and reinforces the influence of the Saudi League on the global football scene.
