Real Madrid is closely monitoring the performance of Álex Jiménez, the current footballer at AC Milan who was developed in the youth academy of the Spanish club. The young Spanish right-back is catching attention in Italy due to his progress and outstanding performances with the Rossoneri, prompting the Madrid board to consider the possibility of exercising their buy-back option.

Real Madrid secured two options to reclaim the player when they loaned him to Milan. The first clause allows the Merengues to re-sign him in the summer of 2025 for a price of 9 million euros, while the second option establishes a repurchase of 11 million in 2026. With this scenario, the white club has room to make a decision, although the increasing prominence of the player in the Italian team could accelerate the timeline.

In Milan, aware that Jiménez is a player with great potential, they have already begun to make moves to try to secure him with a contract renewal. The goal of the Rossoneri is to eliminate those buy-back clauses and ensure his long-term continuity. The intention is to offer him an improved contract and a project where he can continue to grow as a footballer.

Jiménez's evolution in Serie A is being closely monitored by Real Madrid, which in recent years has prioritized the return of players developed in their youth academy if they stand out in other clubs. His projection and potential fit the philosophy of the white entity, which could consider his return if he maintains his current level.

With time on their side, Real Madrid will have to decide whether to trigger the buy-back of a player who continues to progress and could become an interesting option for the future of their defense.
