Takefusa Kubo is the latest name to be departing the Bernabeu as Los Blancos trim their squad ahead of the new season.

The 21-year-old Japanese forward signed for Madrid from FC Tokyo in 2019 but has been sent out on loan during his three years at the club. He has played for the La Liga champions during pre-season games but never cracked the nod for a full season at the side.

Real Madrid will also have a buy-back option on Kubo, Football Espana reported. Los Blancos have the option in place in case they feel the need to bring back the striker to the club should he develop into more of a star.

Kubo has played 93 games in La Liga thus far, scoring six and creating seven goals, TransferMarkt.
