Getafe set high Uche transfer fee

Uche joined the Madrid-based club just a few weeks ago from Spanish third-tier side Ceuta for a meagre 500,000 euros and has become one of the most outstanding players in just five matches into the La Liga campaign.

On his debut away at San Mames, the midfielder starred and scored the equaliser in a thrilling 1-1 draw against Athletic Bilbao to mark his arrival. In the Azulones’ second game against Rayo Vallecano, the 21-year-old was again named the match’s most valuable player following another fantastic display.The Owerri-born midfielder has started all of Getafe’s four matches so far this season and has become an integral part of Jose Bordalas’s team.

Despite his young age, Uche has proven to have what it takes to play among the elite players, a fact accentuated by his performance against the Red and Whites.

His bright start to the 2024/25 La Liga season earned him a nomination for the best U-21 player for the month of August—an award he lost to another youngster, Lamine Yamal.Spanish outlet, fichajes, has reported that Uche, who has earned a prominent place in the Madrid squad and is already considered one of the biggest revelations of the season in La Liga, could leave Getafe after just one season with several top teams monitoring his progress.

While his future is being debated, Getafe have placed a high transfer fee of over €10m on the versatile player.
