Betis, Rayo and Levante eye up Real Madrid's youth academy
Jacobo, an emerging defender from Real Madrid Castilla, will be leaving this summer, according to Marca. The lack of opportunities in the first team, with the defense completely saturated, has led him to consider a loan to continue his development. Although Cesc Fàbregas' Como is leading the bid, there is also strong interest from LaLiga clubs such as Betis, Levante, and Rayo Vallecano for his loan. 📸 Angel Martinez - 2025 Getty Images These three teams, with attractive projects both in national competition and in Europe, could offer him vital minutes at the elite level. The final decision will be made in the coming days, with options for both a loan and a transfer being considered, which is Real Madrid's priority over a loan, as has already happened with Víctor Muñoz and Yusi.
