Real Madrid have been studying the development of Miguel Gutierrez at Girona, per Marca.
The Spanish defender has been performing superbly in La Liga's most flamboyant team this season with a goal and 5 assists in 26 games. Girona currently sits top of La Liga one point above Real Madrid who have played a game less.
Real Madrid have Ferland Mendy and Fran Garcia playing left-back, but Los Blancos are yet to extend Mendy's contract which ends in 2025, despite Carlo Ancelotti highly rating the Frenchman.
Thus, Mendy could leave the club either for a fee in the summer or for free in 2025. Real's ideal replacement would be Alphonso Davies but Bayern Munich are doing everything to keep him, like offering a higher salary than Real Madrid.
If Madrid can't get Davies, they are likely to go all out for Miguel a player groomed in their Castilla Academy before being sold two years ago for €4m.
However, Real Madrid retains 50% of the rights to Gutierrez and could re-sign him for a small fee if they really wanted to.
