MADRID – Real Madrid have officially tied down one of their brightest academy stars, Leo Lemaitre, to a new long-term contract. After receiving the “green light” from President Florentino Pérez, the 16-year-old defender has signed an extension that includes a staggering €100 million release clause, signaling the club’s intent to ward off interest from Europe’s elite.
Standing at a towering 1.94m, the left-footed center-back has become a sensation at La Fábrica. Lemaitre’s unique profile combining physical dominance with elite ball-playing ability has earned him constant comparisons to Dean Huijsen. According to reports from AS, several major European clubs were monitoring the Spaniard’s situation, forcing Madrid to fast-track his renewal.
