Official: Como sign Ramon from Real Madrid in complicated agreement
Como have officially signed defender Jacobo Ramon from Real Madrid on a permanent transfer, in a deal similar to that of Nico Paz, with several buy-back clauses. The central defender turned 20 in January and is a product of the Real Madrid youth academy, moving all the way up the various teams. Ramon has represented Spain at Under-18, Under-19 and Under-20 levels. 'Jacobo is a young player with great prospects,' Como coach Cesc Fabregas told the club website. 'He comes from one of the most competitive youth academies in the world, where he has been able to hone his skills, and we are confident he will have a very positive impact on our team.' Why Ramon is owned by both Como and Real Madrid MADRID, SPAIN – MAY 14: Jacobo Ramon of Real Madrid CF in action during the LaLiga match between Real Madrid CF and RCD Mallorca at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on May 14, 2025 in Madrid, Spain. (Photo by Florencia) A statement from Real Madrid merely confirmed that they had 'reached an agreement for the transfer' of the player to Como, but gave no further details. The reality is a little more complicated, as Como are expected to pay circa €2.5m plus add-ons for his signature. However, Real Madrid are owed 50 per cent of any future sale fee and have three different buy-back options in case they want to bring him to the Bernabeu.

(Photo by) This is the same structure that allowed Como to sign Nico Paz, as he had an option for Real Madrid to recall for €8m in June 2025. That rises to €9m in 2026 and €10m in 2027 before it expires completely. This complicated system allows Como to develop the players by giving them regular time in Serie A, but also for Real Madrid to potentially reap the rewards at a later date. In the past, it would've been called a co-ownership deal, but those formulas were banned several years ago.

I found out Lindsay Lohan's skincare secret and copied it– the result is incredible
As Freakier Friday star Lindsay Lohan reveals the secret to her glass skin, our head of beauty dives into the world of lasers herself Lindsay Lohan is in full comeback mode, and her skin is giving lead character energy at every Freakier Friday photocall this month. In fact, her skin looks so glowy that I'm convinced I could use her cheeks as a mirror to check my reflection. Watching her literal glow-up in 2025 has led me to wonder what she's been doing to her skin to get the complexion of a 20-year-old and the mirror-like dewiness of someone who has never seen sunlight and/or has been on a serious retinol routine for decades. While the exact list of aesthetic treatments she's booked in for is under wraps, the 39-year-old did share in a 2022 Como interview that she likes having regular IPL laser sessions to keep her complexion free from sun damage and looking youthful. IPL, or intense pulsed light, is known for tackling pigmentation, redness and fine lines, and it's no stranger to other A-lister skin routines. But while IPL can be incredible, it's also not for everyone, particularly those with sensitive skin or deeper skin tones, which can react unpredictably. Even Lindsay has admitted in more recent interviews that treatments like IPL and Morpheus8 (one of her other more invasive former go-tos) are a bit too much for her now, since her skin has become more sensitive after having a child. However, inspired by Lindsay's results from laser facials, I decided to book in for some sessions myself. Also inspired by her newfound gentle approach to aesthetics, I booked in for a more low-key laser that can be done during lunch hours and doesn't leave me walking around like Samantha Jones from that Sex and the City episode for days after. Here's what happened when I tried Clear & Brilliant at London's Thérapie clinic. What is Clear & Brilliant? Clear & Brilliant is technically a laser facial, but it's on the mild end of the spectrum. It uses fractional laser technology to create microscopic treatment zones in the skin (don't worry, you don't feel it), which triggers collagen renewal and skin regeneration. It's non-ablative, meaning it doesn't remove the top layer of your skin, so there's minimal downtime and no scary peeling phase. It's also suitable for all skin tones and skin types – a major plus in a world where not all lasers are created equal. While it's not exactly cheap (you're looking at around £250–£300 per session in most clinics), it feels like a smart investment if you're targeting fine lines, texture or early signs of pigmentation, without wanting to go full Fraxel. My laser experience and results I booked in for three Clear & Brilliant sessions at Thérapie Clinic over the course of three months, hoping for a more even skin tone and to tackle some lingering acne scars. After the first session, my skin flushed pink immediately (don't panic – this is normal), but it settled to a mild blush within an hour. I was back at my desk by lunch. What you probably want to know is, did it hurt? I had the laser on the highest setting possible and I found it fine. It's not comfortable– the elastic band-like flicking sound made me flinch more than the feel of it – but it's also not painful. The only slight 'ouch' moment was when it went over the skin above my lips. Other than that, the 30-minute sessions flew by with minimal pain. However, if you don't have a great pain tolerance (I'll admit, I do), you can ask for numbing cream to be applied beforehand. The following days felt a little rough – literally. There's a sandpaper-like texture that kicks in on day two or three, but it's subtle and easy to cover with a little tinted SPF. Within a week, that gave way to visibly smoother, glowier skin. After my third session, the difference was clear: my pores looked tighter, emerging sun spots on my cheeks faded and even a few red post-acne marks that had been hanging out on my jawline for a year started to vanish. I even started getting compliments from skincare professionals in my industry, with a couple saying my skin was 'great' – as a former acne sufferer, this isn't a phrase I ever thought would be uttered about my skin. So while I can't say I've had the exact same treatment as Lindsay, I can confidently say I can vouch for her laser and good skincare combination as an anti-ageing routine, because my complexion has never looked better.

Real Madrid prospect set to undergo medical with his new club today
Jacobo Ramon, one of Real Madrid's brightest young defenders, is heading to Serie A. As reported by Nicolo Schira, the 20-year-old will undergo his medical with Como today and is expected to sign a long-term contract that runs until 2030. The Italian club will pay €2.5 million for the transfer, with further bonuses potentially included in the deal. However, this is not a full goodbye from Real Madrid. In line with their usual approach for developing talent, Los Blancos have retained 50% of any future sale value. They have also included a buy-back clause that will be valid until 2028, giving them the chance to bring Ramon back if he continues to grow in Italy. Following in Nico Paz's footsteps It is to be noted that Ramon is not the first Real Madrid youth product to take the Italian route. He follows former Castilla teammate Nico Paz to Como, a club now managed by former Barcelona and Arsenal star Cesc Fabregas. Jacobo Ramon is set to join Como. (Photo by) Ramon had also attracted interest from three clubs in Spain, but chose Como for its project, style of play, and development opportunities under Fabregas. The structure of this deal is very similar to other recent transfers involving players from La Fabrica, Real Madrid's youth academy. The club ensures they do not lose control over their young stars completely, while giving them the freedom to gain first-team experience elsewhere. Ramon made his senior debut for Real Madrid in January during a 5-1 Champions League win over RB Salzburg. He later scored a dramatic 95th-minute winner on his La Liga debut to help Madrid beat Celta Vigo 3-2, keeping their title hopes alive. Despite playing only six matches for the senior team, he left a lasting impression, and now, he will look to make his mark in Serie A with Como.
