Eder Militao’s good season helps his representation agency to put pressure on Real Madrid in search of a salary increase.
They have been slow to ask for more money for his representative, who was highly questioned in his first season and in the second he passed the cut very fair. The departures of Varane and Ramos have given him the opportunity to be a starter, because if Militao had continued he would continue to be a substitute. Madrid plans to extend it until 2028, but will not accept pressure or blackmail.
The Brazilian center-back is not one of those who win the least, he occupies an average salary scale of the squad. He receives 4.5 million euros net per season (9.1 gross), but he wants more. Militao, 24 years old, has a contract with Real Madrid until 2025 and his market value is 60 million euros. In the white team there is a queue of central defenders after the signing of Rudiger with Alaba, Nacho, Vallejo, Chust, Gila…
THE CHELSEA, ON THE LOOK
His agents put pressure on Real Madrid, straining Chelsea’s firm interest in signing him. They assure that Todd Boehly, the new president, wants to hit the transfer market after losing Rüdiger and Christensen and that Militao is one of his targets. A pressure that Real Madrid doesn’t usually like, as he has been demonstrating in recent years, in which he has opened the door to more established players than the Brazilian.
Madrid plans to review the contracts of a few players, starting with Vinicius, but will not accept pressure from agents. He already did it with Cristiano Ronaldo or Sergio Ramos, two Real Madrid icons who ended up out due to that desire for recognition in the form of more zeros in their emoluments. Militao is one of those he has on his agenda to improve his contract, but he will also open the door for him and sell him if he arrives with an irrefutable offer from Chelsea. As with Mbappé, the club is above the players.
