Real Madrid will not trigger buy-back clause for Stuttgart's Chema

Summary

Real Madrid is set to forgo its buy-back option for Chema Andrés, currently with VfB Stuttgart, for the upcoming transfer window. According to Diario AS, the club intends for the 21-year-old midfielder to gain further experience at Stuttgart, where he excelled last season with 39 appearances. Despite his expressed desire to return to Real Madrid in the future, the club's decision allows Stuttgart to incorporate Chema into their plans for the 2026-27 season. Madrid retains a buy-back option for €15 million next year after signing him to Stuttgart for €3 million last summer.
