Real Madrid will finalise contract renewals for two star midfielders this week

This week is poised to bring two great announcements for Real Madrid fans, with their two crucial midfielders in Federico Valverde and Eduardo Camavinga closing in on sealing their contract renewals.

According to Melchor Ruiz, the Galacticos will follow up on last week’s renewals of Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo with these two players, cementing their place in Madrid’s long-term project.

Tomorrow, on Tuesday the 7th of November, Madrid will first announce the renewal of Camavinga ahead of the Frenchman’s 21st birthday on Friday.

And then, on Thursday the 9th, Valverde will follow according to the Spanish journalist.

€1bn release clause for both

Both Valverde and Camavinga will sign five-year deals till 2028, and their contracts will have a release clause of 1 billion euros.

Not only does this ensure a long say for both players, but the release clause is a safety net in a market where money is being thrown around like never before.

After Saudi Arabia’s incredible transfer splurge over the summer window, there is proof that clubs cannot afford to take any chances on their key players.

Fede Valverde and Camavinga have both become mainstays of the Madrid squad, the latter already in his third season with Los Blancos before turning 21.

As Luka Modric and Toni Kroos seem to be entering what is most likely their final spell at Madrid before riding off into the sunset, Valverde at 25 will be among the more experienced names in their lineup as they enter a new era.
