i think it will be a GREAT mistake for real madrid to let him go...he has been one of the best players since he arrived and i think it would be a gratefull thing if real madrid keeps him until his retirement which will probably be in 3-4 years...he has done so much for the club...he doesnt have to show off his skills for him to be good..he is the chain that hooks the defence to the offence...no way he should be let go for any price.
