Farewell to Real Madrid! The 'Super Talent' with 21 goals is confirmed to depart

Real Madrid is prepared to let a gem from La Fabrica leave Bernabeu to gain experience, while also inserting a buy-back clause to control the player's long-term future.

Real Madrid's La Fabrica academy continues to unveil a sensational name transfer market: Cesar Palacios. At 21 years old, this attacking midfielder has proven that the Primera Federación is no longer the suitable arena for him to shine, following a brilliant period at the Castilla reserve team with an impressive record of 21 goals in his youth career.

Despite having made his official debut for Real Madrid's first team in the 2025/26 season, among the star-studded lineup at Bernabéu, Palacios is unlikely to secure a regular starting spot. Aware of this, the leadership of Los Blancos has finalized a plan for him to depart in the upcoming summer transfer window. However, this is not a permanent farewell.

According to the Diario AS, Real Madrid will apply the "Nico Paz formula" for this deal. Specifically, the Spanish Royal club will sell Palacios outright but include a buy-back clause and retain a partial ownership stake in the player.

This strategy allows Real Madrid to control the young midfielder's future, enabling him to accumulate experience in more demanding environments like La Liga or Serie A, while also facilitating his potential return to Valdebebas if he meets expectations.

Currently, the appeal of this midfielder, who possesses refined individual technique and sharp penetration ability into the penalty area, is strongly spreading to Italy. Some clubs in Serie A consider Palacios' direct playing style highly suitable for modern football trends. Meanwhile, mid-tier teams in La Liga also view him as a "golden piece" to enhance creative capabilities in their midfield.

On Cesar Palacios' side, the player is also ready to embrace the new challenge. He understands that leaving Real Madrid's embrace at this moment is a necessary step to establish his star status in Europe by 2026.

The ultimate goal for both Palacios and Real Madrid remains a future return to Madrid as a core player capable of competing for a starting position. Negotiations are expected to intensify in the coming weeks to finalize the future of this valuable asset.
