Real Madrid continue to showcase their masterful transfer business under Florentino Pérez. The club has reportedly banked a huge €122.5 million from the sales of five players who did not feature in last season’s first-team squad.
Breakdown of the Sales:
| Player | Destination | Fee Received by Real Madrid |
|---|---|---|
| Nico Paz | Como | €60M |
| Víctor Muñoz | Liverpool | €20M |
| Mario Gila | AC Milan | €15M |
| Álvaro Rodríguez | Bournemouth | €15M |
| Álex Jiménez | Bournemouth | €12.5M |
| Total | – | €122.5M |
Key Highlights
- Nico Paz move to Como stands out as the biggest deal. After an initial agreement, Como paid €60 million to secure the Argentine midfielder permanently, while Real Madrid retained a significant buy-back option.
- Víctor Muñoz triggered his release clause at Osasuna to join Liverpool, with Real Madrid benefiting from a sell-on clause worth around €20 million.
- Young talents like Álvaro Rodríguez and Álex Jiménez moving to Bournemouth have also generated solid returns through sell-on clauses.
This latest windfall once again highlights Real Madrid’s highly successful model of developing academy and youth players before selling them for substantial profits.
While these players were not part of the senior squad last season, their sales have helped strengthen Real Madrid’s financial position without affecting the current first-team plans.
