An atypical situation is the one that exists in real Madrid because several of its players end their contract in June of this season. With a theme pending renewal, the ‘merengues’ have opted to hold negotiations with some variations. Club references such as Luka modric, Toni Kroos and Karim Benzema They should decide their future as soon as possible.
In total there are seven players who do not define their continuity with the club. The clearest game seems to be that of Mariano Díaz, who has shown no improvement in his game and there is no intention to continue counting on him. The ‘merengues’ would only wait for the link to come to an end.
On the other hand, there are the delicate ones that are those of Modric, Kroos and Benzema. The three living legends of the club and who, given their age (37, 33 and 35 years respectively) must be treated as such. In the case of the German, it seems that he is the one who has the decision to make because there is a possibility that he ends up retiring.
The cases of Modric and Benzema are different, although they will not extend for more than a year, according to the club’s policy. This is how the ‘whites’ define their waiting period with the obligation to listen to what the referents are looking for. The next few weeks will be key as they will also plan the next season.
The big unknowns
The situations of Nacho, Asensio and Ceballos are a constant doubt. The three have been recurring in the season, although they do not have the starting status and a renewal offer is what still does not convince the board. However, the players know that their relevance would be greater in any other team.
Thus, the calendar does not stop counting the dates and there are only three months and 26 days left for all these contracts to expire (June 30). Madrid will listen first and offer later with the condition that best suits the club and in the term that is favorable.
