Florentino changes his mind about Courtois, surprising new contract and watch out for the salary

It's well known that one of Real Madrid's greatest successes is the management carried out by Florentino Pérez. In this regard, one of the most important points is the matter of contract renewals for veteran players. That's why it's surprising that Courtois is the exception to the rule, with a contract that increases his salary and a renewal for 2 years.

It's important to remember that Florentino Pérez is quite reluctant to grant this type of renewal to footballers over 30 years old. That's why it's rather interesting to see why he has changed this dynamic with the Merengue goalkeeper.

However, it seems to be a unanimous decision among fans: he has earned his renewal. Still, it's surprising how he has changed his mind with one specific footballer.

The Belgian has changed him

Everything seems to indicate that president Florentino Pérez has become increasingly lenient over the years.  This is because he seems to have changed his transfer and renewal policy, specifically with one player.

Courtois is clearly one of the great figures of the Merengue squad today, without a doubt. What he has done on magical nights to rescue Real Madrid in difficult moments is something unrepeatable. That's why, for many, this salary increase is more than deserved for such an essential footballer.

What is surprising is the fact that a player like Cristiano Ronaldo didn't have this possibility, something that Courtois does. Although it may also have to do with the way he has managed his career at Real Madrid: with total calm and commitment to the club.

Enjoying the years he has left

There's no doubt that this player has earned his renewal and will continue enjoying being at Madrid for a few more years. Something more than deserved for a footballer of this caliber. Moreover, Madridism, for a little longer, will have security between the posts with this star.
