Takefusa Kubo chose Real Madrid over Barcelona due to a stunning contract offer, it has been revealed.
The former FC Tokyo starlet will join Real’s Castilla squad after Japan’s Copa America campaign.
Sport says the Japanese youngster turned down a return to La Masia once Madrid made him an offer he couldn’t refuse. He went from the €250,000 per season deal from Barça to €2m per season with Madrid.
Ernesto Valverde felt a season with Barça B would be the right move and his contract represented that. However, the player changed his agent during negotiations and Madrid offered a mega deal and promised Take a place in the first team squad in 2020.
