Real Madrid stonewall AC Milan interest in forward with
Real Madrid may have to tighten their purse strings in the coming year, but Brahim Diaz will not be squeezed out in the near future, according to the latest reports from the Spanish capital. The 26-year-old has seen relatively few starts, partly due to an injury, and is important for former club AC Milan.
Recent reports claim that the Rossoneri are interested in signing Brahim in January or the summer. Still, Marca says that while they currently have no plans to extend his deal beyond 2027, they have no intention of letting him go. The Moroccan international is a highly valued member of the team and the dressing room. They have no doubts about its continuity.
Although they are not currently considering a contract extension, they do see him as part of their long-term plans and will review the situation in the summer. While they admit that most members of the Real Madrid squad come with a price tag these days, that is not what they mean for Brahim.
There has been much talk about the consequences of a loss of income expected to come from hosting concerts at the Santiago Bernabeu this summer, which could be reflected in the transfer market next summer. Brahim was mentioned as one of the players who could leave for the right price, but that price would likely be high for the 25-year-old.
