Real Madrid tipped to complete first signing of 2027 for just €9 million

Real Madrid is expected to sign Jacobo Ramon for a modest €9 million during the 2027 transfer window, according to journalist Miguel Serrano. The Spanish club originally sold the 21-year-old defender to Como for €2.5 million in 2025, but now see him as a valuable asset to strengthen their squad under Jose Mourinho. Serrano believes Ramon's development since leaving Madrid has been remarkable, with the young defender becoming an indispensable starter and a senior international for Italy.

The defender could return as the fourth-choice center-back, alongside Dean Huijsen, Ibrahima Konate, and Eder Militao. Antonio Rudiger, another center-back, is expected to stay for another season but is unlikely to see regular playing time. If Real Madrid decides to keep Ramon, he could provide a high-quality option in a crucial position for Mourinho.

Alternatively, they could buy Ramon and subsequently sell him back to Como, similar to their successful maneuver with Nico Paz the previous summer. Real Madrid's acquisition of Ramon appears almost certain at this point, with the club yet to finalize the details.
