Jacobo Ramón Puts Real Madrid Return on Hold

Jacobo Ramón has told Real Madrid, in effect, not yet. According to a report from Diario AS, the centre-back is not currently considering a return to the Bernabéu, preferring the regular first-team football he has found at Como.

Real Madrid sold the 21-year-old to Como for €2.5 million in the summer of 2025 but kept 50% of his rights, a clause that has become a common feature of the club's deals for young players sent out permanently. That stake would let Los Blancos trigger a return, and. Transfermarkt puts his market value at €45 million.

Ramón has made six appearances this season under Cesc Fàbregas and scored once, established enough as a starter that AS reports Arsenal and Chelsea are also weighing a move. He is not the only academy product to have found a home at Como:

The report does not suggest Ramón has ruled out Madrid for good, only that he sees no reason to interrupt a run of games that has made him a first-choice defender in Serie A. For Real Madrid, the retained rights look for now like a safeguard rather than an active plan, leaving the club free to track his progress from a distance while it weighs other options at centre-back.
