Chelsea and Liverpool Lead Chase for Como’s Jacobo Ramón as Real Madrid Hold Buy-Back

Real Madrid’s buy-back plus sell-on clauses leave English suitors waiting on the Spanish club’s stance.

Overview

  • Tottenham have joined Chelsea and Liverpool in tracking the 21-year-old centre-back, with Newcastle, Brighton and Crystal Palace also sending scouts since December, according to multiple reports citing CaughtOffside.
  • Real Madrid retain an €8 million buy-back option and a 50% sell-on clause, positioning them to either re-sign Ramón or profit from any transfer, which makes their decision decisive for any move.
  • Ramón moved from Real Madrid to Como last summer and has established himself as a regular starter in Serie A, with reports noting 16 league appearances this season.
  • Como hold the defender under contract until 2030 and his market value is cited around €18 million, though the clauses mean the effective cost to Premier League clubs could be higher.
  • Chelsea are said to view Ramón as a long-term project within their youth-focused recruitment model, while Liverpool admire his pace and composure as a fit for a high-intensity defensive setup.
