Joselu is 34 years old, he is aware that his career will not be long and in terms of quality he cannot compete with other young players and this decision so that he can earn more money before deciding to retire is not a bad decision.
However I was a little surprised because Real Madrid had confirmed that they would still extend Joselu's contract and keep this player despite Mbappe's arrival, because to be Mbappe's replacement, I think Joselu is still quite good, especially with his big contribution last season, he deserves to be appreciated. stay on this team.
Not only did he extend his contract but Real Madrid was willing to make him permanent from Espanyol and that was all Joselu deserved after his brilliant performance throughout last season. The most memorable thing is after he destroyed Bayern Munich in the Champions League. However, fate said otherwise and Joselu chose to join a Qatari club. Maybe the concrete reason is that Real Madrid has got Mbappe and also the arrival of Endrick will mean that his playing minutes will be completely used up.
Even though when he was still at Espanyol there was an interview about which player would you like to play with? and Joselu answered Mbappe, but after Mbappe arrived at Real Madrid, he left. On the other hand, offers to play in the Middle East are very rare, especially for players like him and we know that maybe his finances are not so good so this could be a savings for his old age with his family. Joselu has won all the titles with Real Madrid and for that reason he is very satisfied.
