Real Madrid defender Jesus Vallejo was unlikely to see much action under Carlo Ancelotti this season, and that was made clear to him at the start of the season. Even he might have been hoping for more involvement than the ten minutes he's had all season, and it appears he's having a change of heart.
The Copa del Rey match against fourth-tier Deportiva Minera looked like one of the few opportunities for Vallejo to play, but Relevo reports that he unfortunately suffered a muscle injury this weekend. He missed practice on Sunday and will not be available on Monday evening. The same source says Vallejo is now looking for a way out this winter.
Real Madrid will do what they can to facilitate a move if Vallejo make an offer at their door, but it is noted that it will not be an easy exit.
Vallejo only has six months left on his contract, which Los Blancos do not want to extend, but the former Real Zaragoza centre-back is unlikely to want to miss the remainder of his contract with Real Madrid. This will be at a much higher rate than he can command in the market, hence the 'difficulty' in finding a destination for him.
