The situation
The more than likely signing of Takefusa Kubo by Real Sociedad may enter its decisive hours.Because the San Sebastian club hopes to unblock the operation over the next week, in the hope that Real Madrid will finally agree to negotiate the sale of the Japanese footballer, who for the moment has only been allowed to leave on loan. He does not want to lose control of him, in case he ends up exploding and destroys the bet he has been making for years for the young Japanese talent. But the lack of clubs interested in his transfer leads him to have to change his position and accept the option that Real gives him to sign him as property, including some type of repurchase option that allows him to recover it over the next few years. years at a lower price than that which appears in his termination clause, being more expensive for the rest of the teams that are interested in signing him in the future. The key to unlocking the operation is that Take Kubo is not going to travel with Real Madrid to the tour of the United States, which may allow Real Madrid to exert a little more force so that the white entity ends up backing down from its inflexible position until now not to sell the Japanese soccer player.The fact that he occupies a non-EU position does not help Real Madrid maintain this position either. The Royal Society wants to buy it on property. Real Madrid only wants a loan. But this may change in the next few hours. The contacts between clubs have continued to happen, advancing little by little in the operation. The footballer himself has already expressed to the white club his desire to sign for Real Sociedad this summer, and the San Sebastian club itself has been approaching positions with Kubo’s entourage for some time to agree on his conditions in San Sebastián. The San Sebastian club hopes to achieve its goal of getting his property transfer, after three summers behind Kubo, and after his loan slipped away in the last two summer transfer markets. The possibility that Real Madrid agrees to include a repurchase option in the agreement between clubs for years to come, not wanting to lose Kubo completely, wins more and more integers. From there, the complicated thing will be negotiating the figures of each of these parts of the agreement.
The details
That is, for how much money will the transfer be made and how much will that repurchase option be. La Real does not intend to pay more than ten million euros, and that will obviously make its repurchase clause for that amount. It seems that the negotiation will not be easy, really as it has been up to now.But at Real there is moderate optimism in convincing Real Madrid, with whom they have a good relationship with other operations such as Martin Odegaard, without going any further. But the next few hours seem essential to advance something that seems to end up happening. In fact, in the realistic club they have been preparing to see what Kubo’s arrival would mean from the media point of view, making inquiries in other teams in which he has played. Because the Japanese always drag a long queue of journalists from his country who follow him closely in every game and every training session. La Real continues to work on this operation, which seems to be the third that its president, Jokin Aperribay, spoke about; although without neglecting other options, some of them without having transcended public opinion,
