Real Madrid has so much, if not more than any top in Europe in the central defense in the past seasons ago, with David Alaba spending 13 months out of operation and now restores Eerer Militao from his second cross magazines. Carlo Ancelotti often needs that to use an improvised back four, but it remains unclear whether they will take a step for another center-back in the summer.
Los Blancos had planned to have reinforcements, but eventually missed Leny Yoro, after they had buried their heels during the negotiations with Lille, in favor of Manchester United. However, they did not decide in the same summer in another deal, with many who felt they had left Carlo Ancelotti.
But in September Real Madrid were associated with new central defenders, and in particular RB Leipzig's Castello Lukeba. The 22-year-old apparently checks all the boxes for Real Madrid, apart from price tag. This season he signed a new contract with Leipzig until 2029, which contains a release clause of € 90 million.
According to the daily briefing, Lukeba is now on the radar for Premier League Giants Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United. Christian Falk explains that the agents of Lukeba put the pieces in place for a movement in the summer, but that they in particular have their sights on a move to Real Madrid '.
That news will fall well in the Spanish capital, because they often ask for their transfer goals (see Yoro) to accept less lucrative offers than they could earn elsewhere, such as in England. Real Madrid relies on their goals that give priority to glory over money.
In recent weeks, however, have seen some doubts that a central defender will pursue in the summer, after the rise of Raul Asencio. His form between now and the end of the season can be decisive in their decision -making process.
