Dani Carvajal’s serious injury is a setback for Real Madrid in one of the worst filled positions in the squad. However, the white club is not considering an express signing to replace the Leganés full-back, who is not expected for another year. The idea that Carlo Ancelotti has is to play for the moment with Lucas Vázquez, a winger converted years ago into a full-back, and use Eder Militão to give Curtis’s player breaks.
Moving Militão to the right back will force Tchouaméni to play central alongside Rüdiger despite the fact that Ancelotti prefers the Frenchman in the center of the field. The situation will improve when David Alaba, who also broke his cruciate almost a year ago and is expected to play at the end of November or December, can play. The other center back in the squad is Jesús Vallejo but it was already seen against Alavés that he is very far from the level that Madrid needs.
The winter market
The last signing was that of Brahim
Madrid sources point out that in no case will there be an express signing because there are no quality players available on the market right now, but that if the team resents the agreed solution, going to the winter market, to which Florentino Pérez He has not appealed since January 2019, with Brahim Diaz. Madrid has had failures and successes in this winter market, with successes like Marcelo, Higuain or Casemiro and resounding failures like Cassano.
The problem with bringing in a right-back in January is that the white club was behind the signing of Liverpool full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose contract expires in June. A signing in that position in a few months does not go well with the idea of bringing in the Englishman next summer.
