Real Madrid will renew 22-year-old youngster’s contract and loan him out
Antonio Blanco is one of La Fabrica’s brightest talents. He formerly held a reputation as one of the most gifted midfielders in the Real Madrid youth system. He briefly served as Castilla’s captain as well.
After spending the first half of the previous season on loan at Cadiz, where he saw minimal playing time, he moved to Alaves in January. There he established himself as an important piece in their push towards promotion.
However, uncertainty currently looms over the 22-year-old youngster’s future at Real Madrid as he has no chance of breaking into the senior team.
According to AS, Real Madrid want to extend Blanco’s contract and then loan him out once more. The Merengues are still confident in his abilities and have no intentions of losing him permanently just yet.
Currently, the midfielder is on international duty with Spain at the U-21 European Championships, who face England in the final.
As per the report, Real Madrid have not forgotten about Blanco, who is having a fantastic campaign at the U-21 Euros. Los Blancos have closely observed him and believe he has merited a renewal.
Blanco would continue to play for Real Madrid with no hesitancy. In an interview in the past, he had said: “If I stay at Real Madrid, it will be great news.”
But he is aware that playing outside is preferable, with competition in the midfield department particularly peaking at the moment.
Blanco is aware that in the near future, he may have to pursue a career outside of Real Madrid. Despite his talent, this will not be the first time a prodigy has hit the exit door in search of more opportunities. Martin Odegard also left with his eyes set on greater game time.
Blanco leaving with similar aspirations is not ruled out, especially if he has to go through more loan spells.

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.
