Real Madrid is in no hurry to activate the option to buy the Shakhtar defender

Real Madrid, which is generally satisfied with the progress of right-wing fullback Vinicius Tobias on loan from Shakhtar, will not in the near future pedal the issue of activating the option to buy out the Brazilian's contract.

Real Madrid President Florentino Perez believes that Tobias can eventually resolve the issue of replacing Dani Carvajal on the right flank of the defense, but is not yet ready to start negotiations with Shakhtar on a full buyout of the player.

It is expected that Real Madrid will enter into negotiations with the Pitmen closer to April-May next year, and will try to agree with the Ukrainian club to extend the loan of Vinicius Tobias for another season.

The Madrid club believes that they should continue to evaluate the quality of Vinicius Tobias's progress in order to understand whether the Brazilian is really capable of reaching the top level in terms of the quality of the game.

Earlier it was reported that Real Madrid could buy Tobias for 18 million euros. The rental price will be 2 million euros. The player cost Shakhtar 6 million euros.
