Real Madrid veteran coy on future beyond this season – ‘Talk about that later’ | OneFootball

Real Madrid will be in high spirits after overcoming Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-finals and securing a place in the final against Borussia Dortmund.

While the Merengues have made it a habit of reaching the final stages of this competition, their win was not easy to come about.

Indeed, if it was not for Joselu’s heroics in the dying embers of the game, an exit almost certainly loomed large.

The unlikely hero from the game has enjoyed a terrific campaign, despite not being a starter. And with the season’s summit in sight, Joselu’s future is being watched closely.

Joselu touches upon his future

During a charity padel event, part of the presentation for the Adidas PT circuit, Joselu was asked about his future at Real Madrid (h/t Mundo Deportivo).

His response, suggesting that they would “talk about that later,” indicated that his focus remained on the upcoming matches, avoiding speculation about his contract for the time being.

Despite his cautious response, Joselu expressed happiness with his current situation at Real Madrid, highlighting gratitude for the tremendous support from his family.

“I am very happy to be here. I am enjoying what has happened these days, but focused on tomorrow when we have a game.

“The congratulations that I liked the most were those of the people you have at home. Family, children, and family nearby. Everything is going well,” he commented.

Real Madrid nearing on one-year extension

While Joselu has not given much hint about his future, Los Blancos are more than happy with Joselu’s performances and intend to offer him a one-year renewal, especially after his exploits against Bayern Munich.

For a mere €1.5 million, Real Madrid possesses the option to buy Joselu from Espanyol permanently, which implies his signing will not be a complicated procedure.
