Over the past couple of weeks, Real Madrid have completed a series of contract extensions, confirming the renewals of Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo Goes, Eduardo Camavinga, and Federico Valverde.
All the players have been handed new and improved long-term contracts with better wages and a mammoth €1 billion release clause, as a tactic to keep Saudi Arabia from sniffing around.
After the four completed contract renewals, Real Madrid are now set to confirm the new extension of defender Eder Militao.
In fact, journalist Alberto Pereiro reports that Los Blancos will announce the Brazilian international’s renewal this week, as early as tomorrow or on Wednesday.
Militao joined Real Madrid from FC Porto in the summer of 2019, signing a six-year contract until 2025 at the time.
Since that the 25-year-old has not penned a new contract, meaning his current one expires in a little over two years.
As such, Real Madrid wish to tie him down to a new long-term deal, with a contract agreement already understood to be in place.
The new deal is now expected to be announced in the next couple of days.
Militao, who has grown into an important player for Real Madrid, has been out sidelined since the opening match of the season due to an ACL injury.
Initially, it was expected that the 25-year-old might not play again this season, but his recovery has been progressing much better than initially anticipated.
As such, Militao is expected to push for a return to training over the next couple of months, which could lead to him making a comeback at some point in early 2024.
