Neither Modric nor Lucas, another Madrid legend leaves the club through the back door.

Real Madrid is already planning the 2025-2026 season, something that goes beyond the first team.

The last few hours have been very hectic for Madridists, especially after Luka Modric's departure was confirmed.

The Balkan will say goodbye this Saturday at Santiago Bernabéu, as will Carlo Ancelotti, Lucas Vázquez, and Jesús Vallejo.

However, they are not the only ones who will leave the Madrid discipline this summer, as Raúl González will also pack his bags.

This is something that journalist Fernando S. Tavero has confirmed, who has explained that the lack of opportunities to reach the first team has been decisive.

"Raúl has already communicated his decision to his closest circle and the locker room. A complicated resolution. Because it is the farewell to the club of his life, hence the doubts. But he has understood that the promotion was a chimera.  At least, for now. At least, from Castilla's bench. Because Raúl will never close the door when leaving and will leave on good terms," assured the journalist from the AS newspaper.

For now, Raúl is focused on the last match of Real Madrid's reserve team, but after this final matchday, the time for goodbye will come.

ready for any challenge

A few days ago, the Madrid legend shared a reflection and positioned himself for new challenges within soccer.

"It has been a great year. In every sense. It is not easy to be last in matchday 10, almost last in matchday 20, and now we are almost in the promotion 'play-off.' On a personal level, every day I feel more confident and ready for any challenge. Any challenge is any challenge. And that is what is on my mind," indicated Real Madrid's legendary '7'.

These words already began to hint at Raúl González's decision, who has several offers, so he will have to consider his next step on the benches.

The former merengue striker doesn't want to rush, as he wants to choose the best project to continue growing and evolving.

In Germany, where they still have fond memories of him, they are very alert to his future, so the possibility of seeing him in the Bundesliga is gaining more strength every day.
