Reece James Real Madrid

Reece James has been linked with Real Madrid this summer transfer window as the Englishman has not opened any further discussion with a new contract. Although Reece James is on Chelsea’s books until 2025, Real Madrid is monitoring this situation.

As it stands, Reece has been an important part of Thomas Tuchel’s squad, which makes it highly unlikely that the owners would let him easily go. His current market value is around $60m, which would put Real Madrid in a situation to pay a large fee or wait until he is a free agent.

There are no signs that Reece would be unhappy in London, as Chelsea is Reece’s home club. The future awaits whether Reece will decide if Chelsea is a long-term commitment to him or if he decides to gain experience elsewhere.
