Real Madrid gives up on the race for Sergio Ramos’s replacement

Real Madrid is about to lose Sergio Ramos after the long controversy between the player his agents and the club. The 34-year-old center back is finishing his contract, and negotiations seem to be over without an agreement between the parties. Of course, Zinedine Zidane and Florentino Pérez must now work together to find a new name. But the first attempts seem failed too.

A couple of weeks ago it was reported that the club will be going on for Bayern Munich ‘s David Alaba who is also expiring his contract with the German club by the end of the season. The big struggle is that the Austrian 28-year-old is chased by lots of big clubs from across Europe. It was also mentioned the name of Argentina’s Marcos Senesi who plays for Dutch giants Feyenoord. But he was just and interest. Still, we have more names.

It was reported that Real Madrid was also looking into the chance of going for Dayot Upamecano. The French center back is doing superbly in RB Leipzig and the Merengues are seriously interested in him. But it is not an easy deal at all, given his release close is over $54 million. It will definitely not be an easy figure to reach for the club.

As reported by Defensa Central the German club is only willing to let him go if that release clothes is paid. On the other end Real Madrid has spoken with the players agent and left clear that they cannot afford it by the moment. It is likely that Real Madrid shift up and keep on teasing Alaba, who has not spoken on his future yet.
