According to the Athletic, Real Madrid and Reinier Jesus have agreed to extend his loan to La Liga club Girona for another year. The 21-year-old Brazilian arrived in the Spanish capital in 2020 with lofty goals, but he was unable to break into the starting lineup for Real Madrid due to the club’s stacked midfield. Last year, Reinier went on loan to Girona, but his time there was cut short by injuries.

Because of his injuries, the Brazilian was never able to establish himself as a starter. The fact that Real Madrid has decided to keep Reinier on loan shows how confident they are in his abilities. While some may dispute the club’s focus on regular game time and the chance to hone his skills in a competitive setting, it is a smart choice.
Reinier has been given a final chance to improve and show his worth by having his loan extended. While he has yet to make his Real Madrid debut since signing in 2020, there is always hope that he can “explode” and reach his full potential with a complete season of continuous playing time at the highest level.
