Jacobo Ramón Set to Exit Real Madrid
Rabat — Jacobo Ramón, will leave Real Madrid this summer, after he decided that he has no place in the first team. Jacobo Ramón, 20-years-old, is a product of the Real Madrid CF Youth, he participated in three competitions including European Under-19 champion, Champions League winner and Uefa Supercup winner, but only made one appearance in the last 25/26 season. Ramón was considered one of the most promising players in Real Madrid's academy, but he never got the opportunity to show his skill, even when he got the chance in the last 2026 season. With players like Huijsen, Militao, Rüdiger, Asencio, and Alaba in the squad, plus Tchouameni in the third center-back, he didn't have the chance to shine. For the center-back, leaving Real Madrid is a difficult decision, but it's the most sensible one. As all eyes are on him in the Transfer Market, he is valued at €1 million. Como's head coach Cesc Fàbregas showed interest in signing him, but they face competition with the Primera Division,including Betis, Levante and Rayo Vallecano. Tags: Jacobo RamónReal Madrid
