Conflicting Valuations and Transfer Fee Estimates
Financial details surrounding the transaction vary depending on the reporting outlet. This figure matches Granada’s stance regarding the player’s release clause after an earlier offer was rejected in June 2025.
Meanwhile, independent platform Transfermarkt lists the defender’s current market value at 1.50 million euros.
Climb Through the Spanish Second Division and International Ranks
Oscar Naasei joined Granada in July 2025. During his time in the Spanish second division, the central defender made 39 appearances and scored one goal. At the international level, he has earned one cap for the Ghana national team.

Developmental Strategy and Integration into Castilla
Upon completing his move, Naasei is expected to initially join Real Madrid Castilla rather than slotting directly into the senior squad. It also allows him to continue his developmental trajectory while remaining under the observation of the first-team coaching staff.
The acquisition aligns with the club’s ongoing strategy of securing young international talent to build depth for future defensive rotations.
