The signing gets complicated: Florentino receives two calls from LaLiga about this center back

Jacobo Ramón is one of the most exciting profiles from La Fábrica. The Spanish center-back, who already knows what it is to score with Real Madrid in an official match, is expected to become an important name in the near future. However, it seems that he'll have to look for a way out to keep growing, since Xabi Alonso doesn't quite see him ready to play this year.

Last season, under Carlo Ancelotti's orders, Jacobo Ramón proved to be a very solid center-back in aerial play. However, the Spanish center-back had certain shortcomings in quick transitions, an aspect that defenders at Real Madrid must master. What is clear is that he still needs to toughen up at the elite level, so he still has plenty of room for improvement.

Jacobo Ramón was headed to Serie A

According to the latest reports, Jacobo Ramón's final destination was expected to be Como in Serie A. A call from Cesc Fàbregas would have convinced the Real Madrid player, who would see the Italian team as a good destination. In fact, several Spaniards are already part of that squad.

After securing Nico Paz's continuity and signing Jesús Rodríguez, the next target is Jacobo Ramón. According to Fabrizio Romano, the deal is very close to being finalized, since Real Madrid would have waited until the end of the Club World Cup.

Real Betis enters the scene

Meanwhile, Real Betis, a LaLiga team that will play in European competitions this season, keeps looking at the market to sign a center-back. Currently, its defenders are Natan, Marc Bartra, and Diego Llorente, so they need to add one more piece as a necessity.

According to what "Defensa Central" has learned, one of the names liked by the verdiblanco club is Jacobo Ramón. However, they also know that Como have already done a lot of work, but the transfer isn't official yet.

The final decision is not yet known, but what is clear is that Real Madrid will impose a clause to keep the rights to the Spanish center-back. At the white club, they intend to have that option in case Jacobo Ramón breaks out and the footballer's return is needed. 

In addition, Getafe CF's interest has also become known, as they usually negotiate with Real Madrid for the services of some players. The azulón team considers Jacobo Ramón a good center-back for its defense, so they could pursue a loan deal.
