Getafe plotting Terrats reunion as deadline day looms
José Bordalás' side pushing for surprise return of midfielder Ramón Terrats from Espanyol, with the player reportedly keen on Getafe comeback despite summer exit.
Getafe are making a last-ditch attempt to bring former midfielder Ramón Terrats back to the club before the January transfer window slams shut.
Surprise reunion on the cards
The Azulones have identified Terrats as their primary target in these final hours of the window, with the club working behind the scenes to orchestrate a surprise return for the Spanish midfielder who only left the Coliseum last summer.
Terrats was absolutely crucial in Getafe’s survival push last season, chipping in with four vital goals that helped keep the Madrid outfit in the top flight. His contributions didn’t go unnoticed, and Getafe were desperate to retain his services when the season concluded.
However, when his boyhood club Espanyol came calling, the pull proved too strong, and Terrats opted for a move back to Catalonia instead of continuing his adventure in Madrid.
Player open to Getafe return
Despite choosing Espanyol just months ago, Terrats’ experience back at the Catalan club hasn’t quite lived up to expectations. Though his playing time has increased in recent weeks, his overall situation apparently doesn’t match what he had envisioned when making the switch.
Sources suggest the midfielder would welcome a return to work under José Bordalás, where he previously thrived in the manager’s system. The familiarity with Getafe’s setup and his previous success there makes this potential reunion appealing for the player.
Difficult negotiations ahead
Pulling off this deal won’t be straightforward. Espanyol have publicly stated their squad is complete and settled, suggesting they’re not looking to offload players at this stage.
However, Getafe are prepared to push until the final moments of the window to secure their man. The Madrid side clearly believe Terrats could provide that extra bit of quality needed for the business end of the season.
It’s going to be a right old dog and bone situation until the deadline, but Getafe seem determined to bring their former star back to the fold.
