"Real" looked at three candidates to take S. Ramos's place © JumpStory

The Madrid "Real" team is trying to extend the contract with the talisman of victories and club symbol Sergio Ramos, whose contract is coming to an end after the season. However, negotiations are currently stalled, and the royal team is forced to prepare for the worst-case scenario. It is reported that the Spaniards have eyed three candidates to take the place of the 34-year-old player. The most realistic newcomer is named the "Villarreal" representative Pau Torres, whose contract includes a €50 million buyout clause. "Real" would try to lower this amount to €30 million. The second is "Man City" player Eric Garcia. He is called a cheaper version of Torres and now would cost €20-23 million or even nothing next summer when he can become a free agent. However, the player was born in Barcelona and may have a predisposition against "Real". The last on the list is Bayern Munich defender David Alaba. The Austrian has not extended his contract with the Germans, and in the offseason, the Spaniards would not have to incur additional expenses.
