Real Madrid has closed the sale of Jacobo Ortega, a 19-year-old forward, to Strasbourg for 10 million euros as part of the latest movements in Real Madrid's transfers. The white club transfers 70% of his rights and retains 30%, thinking about a future operation.

The operation has already been officially announced by the Madrid team. Ortega signs for five seasons with the French team after completing eight years within the white structure, to which he arrived in 2018 at just 12 years old.

Real Madrid earns 10 million for Jacobo Ortega

Jacobo Ortega leaves Real Madrid without having debuted with the first team. Despite this, Strasbourg has agreed to pay 10 million euros for 70% of his rights, a formula that allows the whites to retain an economic stake in the forward's future.

The amount makes his departure the highest sale achieved by Madrid for a player who had not yet played with the first team. The striker had been primarily competing with Real Madrid C, although he had also been involved with Juvenil A and Castilla.

His 2025/26 season boosted his value. Ortega finished the season with 18 goals across different competitions and had a significant role in the UEFA Youth League, a competition won by Madrid's Juvenil A.

Strasbourg bets on Jacobo Ortega

Strasbourg had been working on his incorporation for several weeks. The initial offer was around 8 million euros for 50% of the rights, but the negotiations ended up raising both the price and the percentage acquired by the French club.

The final agreement was set at 10 million for 70%, leaving Real Madrid with the remaining 30%. This way, a future sale of the forward could generate income again for the Santiago Bernabéu.

Ortega had also attracted interest in Spain, with Elche among the clubs following his situation. Ultimately, the forward has chosen to take the leap to Ligue 1 and be part of a Strasbourg team integrated into BlueCo, the same ownership group as Chelsea.

Real Madrid continues to generate income

The sale adds to a summer where the white club has found significant financing in player departures. Deals involving players developed within its structure have yielded close to 200 million euros, following moves like those involving Nico Paz, Gonzalo García, and other young talents.

The strategy allows Madrid to receive an immediate sum without completely giving up the economic rights of certain players. In Ortega's case, retaining that 30% could significantly increase profits if his value rises during his time in France.

Jacobo Ortega's next step will be to definitively join Strasbourg and begin his first experience outside Spain. Meanwhile, Real Madrid adds 10 million euros to their summer revenue and maintains that 30% to benefit from any future sale of the forward.
