Real Madrid receive a combined €15 million from the imminent sale of two promising defenders
Real Madrid have two signings expected to arrive during the summer transfer window, those being Endrick Felipe and Kylian Mbappe. Apart from the retiring Toni Kroos, they also have two players leaving, for which they will receive a good amount of money.
After news that AC Milan will activate the €5 million buyout clause in his loan agreement with Real Madrid for Alex Jimenez, Fabrizio Romano confirmed that more than 10 million euros will be received for the upcoming sale of Rafa Marin, who is very close to signing for Napoli. An agreement is likely to be finalized in the coming days.

Real Madrid have often included buyback clauses when selling their prospects to La Fabrica, and it will be the same on these occasions. The deals for Jimenez and Marin will each include this option for Los Blancos, although it is not known at this stage exactly how much each clause will be worth.
Once again, Real Madrid they did shrewd business. Collecting €15 million for two players who haven't even played a single minute for the first team is rather impressive, and that money could be valuable for their summer transfers.
