Strasbourg just dropped €10 million on Real Madrid academy starlet Jacobo Ortega. Despite zero first-team minutes, the 20-year-old goal machine is locked into a five-year deal.

Replacing the departed Julio Enciso, Ortega represents a bold shift toward high-upside youth assets. Is this the future of squad building?

Madrid is cashing in, and Strasbourg is betting big on pure, unproven potential.
