Real Madrid defensive prodigy set to renew contract until 2026
With Real Madrid set to promote young defender Marvel to the first team imminently, it appears that the club are also set to hand the 20-year-old a new contract.
Indeed, MARCA is reporting that Marvel is set to sign a new renewal that will tie down his future at the club until 2026.
Real Madrid investing in Marvel
Marvel has been a regular for Real Madrid’s Castilla team in the past few seasons and has displayed immense potential.
The 20-year-old had trained with the senior team under Carlo Ancelotti in the past, but the recent injury to Eder Militao has opened up a big window of opportunity for the youngster.
Having loaned Rafa Marin and Jesus Vallejo out earlier this summer, Los Blancos now see the Morrocan-born young defender as the fourth-choice centre-back in Militao’s absence, behind David Alaba, Antonio Rudiger, and Nacho Fernandez.
Marvel’s imminent contract extension does not come because of his recent bump up to the first team, but had been in the works for a while now.
The 20-year-old will be handed improved terms by the Spanish capital club as part of the new contract which will keep him with the Merengues for at least three more years until 2026.
It will be interesting to see whether Ancelotti is prepared to count on the youngster in league games or utilises him only for cup ties.
But, Marvel is now on the verge of penning a new contract with Real Madrid.

Real Madrid very happy with future star Endrick, eagerly awaiting his arrival in 2024 – Romano
Real Madrid’s attacking unit has been crippled by the loss of Karim Benzema earlier in the summer, which was followed by the loss of Vinicius Jr due to injury.
Although Vinicius has returned, there is much left to be desired from the Madrid frontline as we progress through to the season.
Real Madrid, though, are waiting on the arrival of Endrick. The young Brazilian is set to join the Real Madrid squad in the summer of 2024 when he turns 18.
Real Madrid impressed by Endrick
Endrick has already started his preparation for his pending move to Santiago Bernabeu, having performed exceptionally well in his native Brazil this year.
The youngster is constantly working on his game, in order to further improve himself as an attacker. It has left Real Madrid quite happy and eager for his arrival, reports Fabrizio Romano.
The journalist claims that Real Madrid have been keeping close tabs on everything Endrick has been doing, on and off the pitch, at Palmeiras.
And they have received very good reports on the 17-year-old, with the club impressed by how he is putting efforts to improve himself both performance-wise and in other facets.
Despite there being some question marks over his performances, the teenage forward is starting to showcase his potential, having scored five goals in five starts for Palmeiras.
Endrick also learning new languages
Endrick is not only just working on his performance. In fact, the Brazilian is also learning other languages in order to quickly settle into life in Spain.
The youngster can speak Portuguese, but he may have to master Spanish during his time at Santiago Bernabeu.
As mentioned earlier, Endrick can already speak Portuguese, which should go a long way in helping him team up with fellow Brazilians Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo.
Even Eder Militao can speak Portuguese, which should make it easier for Endrick to adapt to life in Spain, at least for the next year or so.
