The official website of Real Madrid reports that on the last day of the transfer window between the club and defender Fabio Coentrao, an agreement was reached, according to which the parties, by mutual consent, terminated the current contract.

Immediately afterwards, it was announced that the Portuguese defender had signed a short-term contract with Rio Ave. The player was immediately introduced to the public and received a new game t-shirt.

Let's note, that Риу Аве is the pupil of Coentrao. It was in this club that the defender began his career, and later tried his hand at Benfica, Real Madrid, Sporting and other clubs.

Coentrao belonged to Real Madrid since 2011, and since then he has only 43 times left in the starting lineup for the matches of La Liga.

In general, Fabio cost the "royal club" of 55 million euros - 30 million were spent on the transfer, and another 25 million were paid as a salary.

It is also possible that Real paid the player for the termination of the contract.
