Ancelotti and Florentino Have a Pact After Asencio's Emergence

Raúl Asencio's great level might have harmed another Real Madrid footballer

Raúl Asencio, once again, was a starter with Real Madrid. The Spanish center-back had no rest against Girona CF and paired up, for the first time from the start, with David Alaba. 

However, the great level of Raúl Asencio would have led the club to make a decision regarding another footballer.

What Will Happen with Jacobo Ramón?

Real Madrid is closely monitoring the progress of Jacobo Ramón, one of the great defensive promises from the youth academy. At just 20 years old, the young center-back has already had the opportunity to play in two matches with the first team this season.

However, the club believes that the most beneficial thing for his growth would be a loan to a Second Division team. At Real Madrid they believe that this would be good for him to continue advancing in his development.

The club's goal is to ensure that Jacobo's growth is not limited by the lack of opportunities in the first team. Despite his great potential, the strong competition in the defense of the merengue team complicates his participation. 

There Is Interest in Jacobo Ramón

Several Second Division clubs would have already shown interest in signing Jacobo Ramón for the next season. His ability to anticipate forwards, his dominance in aerial play, and his security with the ball would make him a great reinforcement.

The goal is to find a project that guarantees him prominence and, at the same time, allows him to adapt to the demands of professional soccer. This way, Real Madrid will end up deciding after seeing Jacobo Ramón's role in the second tier of Spanish soccer.

Carlo Ancelotti has opted for the player on several occasions, but injuries and the emergence of Raúl Asencio halted his progression. 

The future of Jacobo Ramón will be defined in the coming months, but everything indicates that his next destination will be in the Second Division. Real Madrid intends for him to continue his development outside Santiago Bernabéu, but with an eye on his return.
