Real Madrid appears to be ready to take a significant step with one of its most promising young prospects, with plans already in place for Thiago Pitarch to become a permanent member of the first-team squad next season, according to AS.
The 18-year-old has quickly emerged as one of the campaign’s most compelling storylines.
Pitarch has been introduced to senior football by Alvaro Arbeloa, and he has demonstrated a level of maturity that has convinced the coaching staff that he belongs at the top level.
Pitarch, despite his youth, has already made eight first-team appearances, and he has made those appearances count.

His performances have demonstrated authority, poise, and tactical acumen far above his years, immediately earning him the complete faith of the technical staff.
Internally, there is no longer any discussion concerning his job. The coaching staff considers him a vital figure for the rest of the season, and a decision has already been made on his development route.
A first-team player.
As previously stated, Pitarch will not return to the reserve team, regardless of squad availability or the return of key players.
Despite the return of known names like as Jude Bellingham, Pitarch will remain fully incorporated into the senior squad.
Perhaps the most telling part of his rise is the effect he has had on the current midfield hierarchy.
Pitarch has quickly surpassed veteran choices such as Eduardo Camavinga, whose future at the club is significantly less assured than it once appeared.
Real Madrid are set to formalise his status next season by awarding him a first-team squad number ranging from 1 to 25.
Contractual changes are also expected. Pitarch’s current contract continues until 2030, although the terms no longer reflect his growing importance to the team.
According to the outlet, a change is now deemed required, not to lengthen the period, but to recognize his rapid advancement and expanded responsibilities.
