Following the relative success with the first team lately, Real Madrid have been keeping an extra eye on Alex Jimenez. However, the AC Milan youngster will not leave the club this month, as confirmed by a report.
A few days ago, the Spanish outlet AS reported that Real Madrid are considering an early return for Jimenez, who joined Milan permanently last summer for €5m. However, they will have to wait until the summer to bring him back.
As reported by today’s edition of Gazzetta dello Sport (see photo below), Milan have no intention of letting the 19-year-old leave already and have referred to the terms of the deal. Indeed, in the summer, Real Madrid can buy him back for €9m and in 2026, that figure goes up to €12m.
Since mid-December, Jimenez has featured in all eight games between the league and the Supercoppa Italiana, making a difference despite his young age. The Rossoneri also have injury struggles in some of the positions he can play in, so a move this month is definitely ruled out.
Furthermore, in the summer, Milan intend to renegotiate the deal with Real Madrid as they would like to remove the buy-back clauses. This will likely require more cash to be invested in the player, but it could certainly be worth it.
