Carvajal’s serious injury represents a very painful setback for Real Madrid. They have lost the best right back in the world which leaves a big void. Right now His natural replacement is Lucas Vázquezbut beyond the Galician it does not seem that there is another man capable of assuming the position, so perhaps we have to go to the market.
At the end of the match against Villarreal, Ancelotti himself acknowledged that “Lucas Vázquez gives us a lot of confidence and During the break we will talk about this topic. We have to manage the squad well and in case of the absence of the only full-back we have now, which is Lucas Vázquez, think about who to put in this position.” At least until January, which is when the market opens.
And it is that I wanted to talk to Florentino about this, to see what plans the club has regarding signing in January. And if Curtis misses a game due to suspension or physical problems, Carlo will have to turn to emergency solutions like Militao, Fede Valverde, Vallejo, or look towards Castillaalthough they do not seem to be the best options in highly demanding matches.
Florentino has confirmed it
Ancelotti and Florentino have spoken about the current situation and the club president has confirmed that “we are going to sign if things get worse, if we don’t continue with what we have.” Right now there is no intention to sign any player who could be Carvajal’s replacement, especially considering that it would be a provisional solution until his recovery.
In any case, they will be attentive to whether any opportunity presents itself, especially in the form of a loan, which would allow the problem to be solved until the end of the season, but without changing the roadmap of incorporating someone next summer, thinking that in the future take over the starting position.
