Real Madrid are worried about the future of a player who is probably the best in the team at the moment. Edy Tavares was the hero of the madridistas against Partizan in both games in Belgrade. Without him (due to physical discomfort), the team suffered and was beaten in the tense second game of the tie at the WiZink Center. Luckily he was able to be back for the next games.

Tavares' contract negotiations with Real Madrid are at a standstill, as Relevo has been able to confirm. The pivot is determined to stay at the club but his contract expires in 2024 and there are currently no indications of an extension. The great basketball clubs sigh for the African, who is one of the most valuable players in Europe. Even the possibility of an offer from an exotic place like Dubai is being studied by him.

The primary difference between the two sides relates to Tavares' salary demands, which must reflect his on-court performance.

It is unknown how the matter will end, but it is evident that the center breathes Madridismo: "It is always like that. It is said that in the most difficult moments is when Madrid takes a step forward and sticks out its chest. What they have done in the football team last year was very difficult, but that inspires us to follow in their footsteps. We know where we are and what we stand for and that we should never give up."
