While Real Madrid is considering recruiting a central defender to replace Eder Militao, injured until the end of the season, two French people are being considered to join the Merengue club.
Real Madrid has been going through complicated times since the start of autumn. On the pitch, where the Merengue received two huge slaps, against Barça in La Liga (0-4) then against AC Milan in the Champions League (1-3), as well as outside. Consequence of the difficult integration of Kylian Mbappé and the numerous injuries with which Carlo Ancelotti and his staff must deal.
On Saturday, no less than three Madrid players joined the infirmary: Rodrygo and Lucas Vazquez, absent for several weeks, and Eder Militao, victim of a ruptured cruciate ligament in his right knee and out for the rest of the season. A long period of unavailability which forced the club's leaders to look for a successor in view of the winter transfer window.
Several names were mentioned, including that of Aymeric Laporte. Although he has been exiled in Saudi Arabia for almost a year and a half, his performances with Spain during the last Euro left their mark. And the idea of joining Real Madrid clearly does not displease him. “ The Real Madrid rumor? It sounds good. We must not despise teams like Real Madrid,” he confided in an interview with the show El Larguero de la Cadena Ser.
Olivier Boscalgi, the best choice for Real Madrid
“I'm not really aware of Real's interest. I read the same thing as you. There is no problem. That seems like a good rumor to me (laughs), I would obviously listen if someone called me,” he continued. The Agenais is determined in everything to leave Saudi Arabia. “My idea is to return to Europe, yes. It's in my head. My whole family is in Europe so… It’s a different culture. What I did was play football, not do anything else.”
But Aymeric Laporte is not the only French defender to be associated with Real Madrid. The same goes for Olivier Boscalgi, the PSV Eindhoven defender. According to the algorithm of the Olocip site, the former Nice player is the ideal player for the Merengue club. In any case, he has the best characteristics to replace Eder Miltao. The software gave him a score of 98 out of 100, the Frenchman ahead of a compatriot, Aymeric Laporte, who obtained a score of 96.
