Madrid will not study any renewal until January

Real Madrid will not face the renewals of Sergio Ramos, Modric and Lucas Vázquez until January, according to a source of all solvency consulted by this newspaper. The Club has a priority before the end of the year: that the delegated members approve in the Assembly on Sunday the 20th the accounts corresponding to last year, which was closed despite the pandemic with a surplus of 313,000 euros, and the budget for this campaign , which will be 616.8 million euros, 14% lower than last year.

Despite the fact that from Friday January 1, in just two weeks, Sergio Ramos, Lucas Váquez and Modric will be free to negotiate contracts with other clubs, Madrid will not rush. You will wait for the New Year's weekend to pass to start negotiating. In the White House they are clear that the economic incedence of the pandemic will affect everyone and they want to do the math well.

Madrid does not comment on the situation of each of the players who aspire to renew, as they are different scenarios. In the case of Modric (35 years old) and Sergio Ramos (who will turn 35 in March) they are affected by the Club's rule of not renewing players who are over thirty for more than one year. Lucas Vázquez is 29 and is on the border.

For now the only player with whom a firm agreement has been reached for the renewal is Carvajal, which has not yet signed the new contract although it will do so shortly. The 28-year-old right-back has been committed to Madrid until June 2024, until he was 32. Carvajal, along with Nacho, who will end his contract in 2022, is one of the players who exceeds 20 years of service at Real Madrid. A pride for him and for the Club.

Madrid is one of the very few clubs in Europe that will withstand the hit of the virus without putting their economic stability at risk. But before facing all these renovations, entries and exits, the President of the Club, Florentino Pérez, wants to submit the accounts to the approval of the partners, to whom he will give information about the economic blow that the virus has caused.
