The ABC daily claims that the Cape Verdean player's contract renewal, who has one year left on his current deal and is paid a salary of three million euros, is really the last massive obstacle in the sports planning of Real Madrid.

Despite having physical issues, Tavares once again demonstrated in the previous season that he is the most dominant player in Europe in both defense and, undoubtedly, offense. Yet his compensation does not reflect the sporting reality, thus his future is uncertain right now, as he is not even among the top 10 earners in the Euroleague. Real Madrid have better keep an eye out for potential suitors since there will not be a shortage.
