Real Madrid activate buy‑back clause for Jacobo Ramón for €8 million
Real Madrid have agreed a €8 million fee to re-sign Jacobo Ramón from Como but will still weigh whether to keep him at the Santiago Bernabéu or move him on.
On October 29, 2026 Real Madrid moved to trigger the buy‑back clause for young Spanish defender Jacobo Ramón, agreeing to pay €8 million to Como for the 21‑year‑old centre‑back.
The decision to repurchase Ramón does not automatically mean he will become a permanent fixture at the Santiago Bernabéu: the club faces a choice about his next step.
Options for Ramón’s development
According to journalist Mateo Moreto, Real intends to exercise the clause that allows it to bring Ramón back after his departure in July 2025. At that time the defender left Real for Como for a fee of €2.5 million, but the transfer contract included a pre‑agreed repurchase price.
After completing the buyback, the club will evaluate whether Ramón should stay and compete for a place in the first team or be moved on to continue his development elsewhere. One plausible route would be another season with Real’s senior squad; another is a transfer to the English Premier League, where several clubs are reportedly monitoring him.
Real’s immediate task is to decide which environment will best serve the 21‑year‑old’s progression: integration into the first team at Madrid or a switch to a club where he would likely receive regular Premier League minutes.
