Is it very hard to move to front office starting from global markets middle office at Goodman Sachs?

Hi guys, just wondering how farfetched it would be to join GBM middle office operations at GS (e.g., fixed income or equity execution) with the idea of transitioning to front office in a couple of years? Many thanks in advance to anyone who will contribute 🤓
