According to The Athletic, Brahim Diaz is close to extending his deal with Real Madrid until 2027, which would be two extra years compared to his current contract. Both club and player have reached an agreement in principle, and it should soon be made official.
The Spanish playmaker is currently in his third season on loan at Milan where he has amassed 105 appearances, scoring 16 goals and providing 10 assists. Despite the imminent renewal, the report states it ‘has yet been fully decided where Diaz will play his football’ next season.
Nonetheless, the Real Madrid management have opted to extend his deal with a pay rise, while Brahim has enjoyed his time in Serie A but his priority ‘has always been to fight for a place at Real Madrid’.
What the LaLiga side choose to do with the future of Marco Asensio could also have an impact on whether Brahim returns to the Spanish capital next season.
