Real Madrid Confidencial Revealed: Xabi Alonso has been key in Brahim Díaz's contract renewal
Real Madrid has already reached an agreement with Brahim thanks to Xabi
It hasn't been made official yet, but Real Madrid and Brahim are going to keep joining their futures. The Málaga native has reportedly accepted the club's contract renewal offer, and the agreement is already finalized. This is something that Defensa Central has been able to confirm with sources close to Valdebebas.
In this operation, Xabi Alonso has been key, as he spoke directly with Brahim to convince him. The summer wasn't looking good for the Málaga native after what happened with the team. Mastantuono's arrival seemed to add a direct rival with very similar qualities.
In addition, Arda Güler's step forward, even as a midfielder, took a spot from him in the starting eleven. However, Xabi wanted to speak directly with him to reassure him and share his plans. Brahim had a place in those plans, as the Málaga native has already been able to see.
In Bellingham's absence, he has been chosen to take his place; we saw it against Osasuna in the league opener. Therefore, during the Englishman's absence, he may get a lot of minutes, since it will be several weeks. This has ultimately convinced him to sign his contract renewal.
This is what the new contract Brahim will sign with Real Madrid will be like
Several teams have asked Real Madrid about Brahim this summer to try to sign him. However, they've always received the same negative response. Neither club nor player seemed willing to go their separate ways at this time.
Brahim was under contract with Real Madrid until June 30, 2027, but he will extend it. His new contract will extend the expiration date until the end of the 2030 season. That ensures his long-term continuity, something that will please Xabi Alonso, who wanted it that way.
With this renewal, Brahim will also see an increase in the salary he receives from the club. He will earn a salary of €9 million, which will put him on par with Dean Huijsen. Florentino continues with his salary scale, matching two young players he trusts for both the present and the future.
