After a positive year with the Primavera squad, Milan decided to invest in him, redeeming him from Real for 5 million euros last July.
The Spanish club, however, aware of the young talent’s potential, secured a buy-back option: they can reclaim him in 2025 for 9 million euros or in 2026 for 12 million euros.

According to Marca, Jimenez's future could be linked to that of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Real Madrid’s primary target for the right flank next summer. If Florentino Pérez’s club encounters difficulties in bringing the Liverpool full-back to the Bernabéu, an early return for Jimenez could become a concrete option. In the meantime, Milan continues to enjoy the Spanish talent, who is proving match after match that he deserves the trust of the team and the coach.
