The doubts surrounding Dani Carvajal’s injury, who is expected to return to the pitch next season, are causing a major debate at Real Madrid, where there is no clear candidate to replace him.
The executives led by Florentino Pérez will have to find the ideal player to maintain the quality of this part of the defense, as all the names used so far will not be relevant in the plan drawn up by the board.
Dani Carvajal will not play again during the 2024-25 season after suffering “a tear in the anterior cruciate ligament, a tear in the external collateral ligament, and a tear in the hamstring tendon in his right leg,” according to the team.
Information from the Spanish newspaper “Marca” indicates that this situation has led to rumors about possible signings, despite Carlo Ancelotti’s confirmation that the market is closed and there are not many options.
Ancelotti stated: “We have to manage the team well, and in the absence of the only full-back we have available now, Lucas Vázquez, we have to think about who can be put in that position.
However, Florentino Pérez has made it clear that his current idea is to replace Dani Carvajal with Lucas Vázquez.Lucas Vázquez will have a golden opportunity to be a regular at Real Madrid, and he could be able to renew if he performs well from now on.
This has the support of the club president, who will have a direct influence on Jeremie Frimpong and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Florentino Pérez, and all the members of the club, want Lucas Vázquez to feel supported, because the success of Ancelotti’s men this season will depend largely on his performances.
