Not up to expectations and tensions with the veterans: Rathan-Mayes bids farewell to Real Madrid
Xavier Rathan-Mayes’ contract with Real Madrid could be terminated, with the player already on his way out of the club.
Real Madrid’s start to the season has not been as good as they had hoped, losing to Unicaja Malaga in the final of the Spanish Supercup and then to La Liga in their La Liga ACB debut. Xavier Rathan-Mayes’ adventure at the Madrid club also seems to have come to an end, with the midfielder failing to impress. According to Mundo Deportivo, the possibility of a parting of the ways is also increased by the fact that the Canadian has reportedly clashed with some of the club’s most representative players in training.
Real Madrid are said to be seriously considering terminating the player’s contract, which would allow the Madrid club to free up a spot for a non-EU player. Rathan-Mayes scored 2 against Unicaja Malaga and 0 against La Liga, an unusual record for a player who came to Madrid as a prolific scorer.
