Real Madrid won’t use the €80 million release clause on Super Eagles winger Samuel Chukwueze from La Liga club Villarreal in order to sign him.
Samuel Chukwueze’s contract with Villarreal includes a €80 million release clause, claims Spanish news source Defensa Central. However, Real Madrid won’t use it to sign him during the summer transfer window. Additionally, the defending La Liga winner is unwilling to spend even €50 million on the talented winger.
Since joining Villarreal, the Nigerian has made a name for himself as one of the league’s most mysterious players. When the 23-year-old arrived in Spain in August 2017, he finished his football training.
He has also established himself as a key player for the Nigerian national team.
The teenager is having the best season of his professional career thus far. And a 40-appearance total of 13 goals and 11 assists is commendable. Chukwueze’s development has not gone unnoticed in the interim; Real Madrid is supposedly one of his potential suitors.
In the summer transfer window, Real Madrid may need to look for a wide attacker. Because of Eden Hazard’s unclear future at the Santiago Bernabeu, this is the case. The Belgian forward is expected to leave Real Madrid this summer after failing to make an impact there.
Furthermore, Marco Asensio’s long-term future at Real Madrid is uncertain. The Spanish international, though, is reportedly close to signing a brand-new, long-term contract, according to recent sources. The current La Liga champion is still looking for a winger, though. Additionally, Chukwueze has surfaced as a potential summer transfer target for Real Madrid.
However, Chukwueze’s Villarreal deal has a €80 million release clause. Real Madrid will not spend €80 million to sign the 23-year-old because that is too expensive. According to the rumor, Los Blancos won’t even spend €50 million to hire the talented winger.
Although the article does not specify the sum Real Madrid will be willing to pay, it appears doubtful that Real Madrid will exercise the release option.
