Jacobo Ramón: Real Madrid considers buying him back for €9M
Cesc Fàbregas has turned the Como defender into a Serie A standout. Madrid keep 50% of his rights, and the buyback option is just €9 million.
Jacobo Ramón, the Como defender coached by Cesc Fàbregas, is shining in Serie A and the Champions League, and Real Madrid could bring him back next summer. According to Relevo, Madrid retain 50% of his rights and hold a buyback option of only €9 million, a bargain by current market standards.
Journalist Matteo Moretto, of DAZN, says Madrid will exercise that option, though for now it remains a rumour. The 21-year-old, who stands 1.96 metres tall, offers precise distribution and dominance in the air, a profile that would suit José Mourinho's plans alongside Huijsen or Konaté.
Premier League interest complicates the deal, and he would have to fight for minutes at a Madrid that already has plenty of centre-backs. His case recalls Nico Paz, who holds the central role at Como that Madrid never guaranteed him.
