Fulham Football Club has officially signed Gonzalo Garcia and Cesar Palacios from Real Madrid, both on five-year contracts, marking a significant move in the transfer window.

Gonzalo Garcia, 22, had an impressive season with Real Madrid, making 39 appearances and scoring eight goals across all competitions. The forward, who recently earned his first cap for Spain in June, reunites with Fulham's new manager Alvaro Arbeloa, with whom he previously collaborated at the Bernabeu. Garcia expressed his enthusiasm about the move, stating, "I'm very grateful, very happy to be here. I have to thank the board and Arbeloa for the trust they've put in me, and I'm very, very excited to start."

In addition to Garcia, Cesar Palacios, a 21-year-old attacking midfielder, joins Fulham on a contract that also extends until the summer of 2031, with the club holding an option to extend both players' contracts by an additional year. Palacios has made five appearances for Real Madrid's senior team, all as a substitute, and has represented Spain at the under-20 level.

This strategic signing not only enhances Fulham's attacking options but also showcases their commitment to building a competitive squad for the upcoming seasons.
