Real Madrid is seeking to strengthen the team’s ranks, especially in the center of defense, after the departure of Nacho and Alaba’s relapse from his previous injury.
\nAccording to information received from \u201cThe Athletic\u201d newspaper, Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid\u2019s Spanish coach, was asked by the Merengue management to sign a new defender during the summer transfer market, but the Merengue officials refused.<\/p>\n
Real Madrid was close this summer to signing Frenchman Lenny Euro, but Manchester United succeeded in signing him at the last minute due to United’s larger offer.
\nAfter the failure of the Euro deal, the Real Madrid management led by Florentino Perez was considering not signing a new defender and waiting until next summer.<\/p>\n
Ancelotti asked the Real Madrid management to sign a new defender to fill the clear deficit in this line, but the management\u2019s response shocked the Italian coach, as the club informed his coach that they were confident in his ability to make the best use of the available defenders.
\nThe club decided to make its final decision regarding signing a new defender next December, based on the case of Austrian David Alaba.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
